Consider It Cased

Hello Peeps !!!

Happy Saturday !!!

I saw this beautiful card from Robin's blog ( Stamping Country) and I knew I have to cased it. I love how she used the scallop tag punch.

I tied it with the twine from the Sale-a-bration. I stamped this sweet saying and added a few touches to it. Hope you like it.

Playing with Colors

Hello Peeps !!!

Happy Thursday !!!

Today's Playing with Colors are Blushing Bride, Real Red, Basic Black and for my Neutral I chose Whisper White. I wanted to do Valentine colors but instead of using cardstock I used DSPs. I think it turned out pretty good. I used the cut out heart from one of the retired DSP, stamped the heart and use the heart sizzlit to frame it. Hope you like it.

Hope you like it.

Hello Peeps !!!

Happy Tuesday !!!

It is time for My Digital Studio and I found a bit of time today to share a pic from our recent trip to Kauai. This is our second time in Kauai and we just love it. My DH and I had the grandest time exploring the island and enjoying the quaint little towns.
I started with a blank page, added the flower background and super size it. I added the DSP circles and put the buttons in between with the twine. Hope you like it.
