A happy hello

Hi everyone!

I'm sharing with you a card today I made using Sleepy Time Sophie, a digital image from Sweet Nothings Stamp Co. I used the Sweet Day Collection by Echo Park, and some flowers, sprays, as well as pretty lace by Making Memories.

The butterfly you see, I cut using a CC Designs butterfly die which I love. I resisted from coloring Sophie's pajamas Red...this time I only colored her slipper and bow that color LOL. I don't know what it is, but I LOVE Sophie using Red lol.

On the inside, pretty simple as always, just with enough room to write a sentiment.

Thanks for stopping by the blog today. The renovation here at home is looking good, and hopefully soon enough all will be finished and done with, and all the mess will be gone. I can't wait!!! Have a good day!

Super Simple Thursday: Colorful Bithrday Card

Hey everyone! I have been all sorts of busy lately (nothing new, huh? LOL), as you might have noticed by my lack of posting in the last month or so, and today it's just starting to get busier! Demolition starts at my house today, and I'm not looking forward to all the dust it will bring. We are renovating our master bathroom and you have no clue how excited I am (for the new look, not the dust and mess lol)!

Anyways, back to crafting. Today I wanted to share with you a super simple card I made using one image from CC Designs. I colored her hair quite a bit ago and decided it was time to finish her up and put her in a card.

I used Echo Park's a Walk in the Park Collection. I've used that collection so much I think I only have like 4 pieces of 6 by 6 paper left!

I used some ribbon I got a while back at local Michael's, and my Jenny Bowling tab punch. I added some pearls too.

On the inside, pretty and simple as always. I think this card is a perfect example on how simple can be quite cute, just like an elaborate card can be.
This card's also perfect for today because it is my birthday, ha! All I have to say about that is: one year older, one year wiser! Thanks for your loyalty and always stopping by the blog. See you again here soon :)
