Welcome to today's post! Did you miss me on Tuesday?! I sure missed you and what a week it has been! I know there are lots out there like me who are wearing about 10 different hats right now and while you keep going with your head held high and a positive attitude...it sure is exhausting! I needed to switch gears today to do something to feed my soul. It was the kind of day that required something calming and relaxing!
And here is today's project...
This card has what I like to call "everything but the kitchen sink"! From embossing folders to die cuts to embellishments, it is just that kind of card to put a smile on anyone's face. I wanted to feature the Lily Impressions Designer Series Paper with today's card and I paired today's DSP with the Petal Pink cardstock and ink. Pro tip: I did not actually buy the coordinating Lily Pad die cuts (which are still available by the way); however, I discovered that the Magnolia Memory die cuts have a very similar flower shape. Using the detailed die cut and solid die cut from that set, I created a very similar lily pad look that I think coordinates well.
Don't forget to include some of that beautiful paper on the inside of your card or envelope as well!
