Well, hello there. Hope your Thursday is off to a great start. I've got another little card to share with you today, that will hopefully make you smile. This one's a 4 1/4" square card (rustic cream) that was layered with another patterned paper from October Afternoon's The Thrift Shop collection. Next up, came a kraft doily that I die cut with the Parisian Lace doily die, positioned right in the center of the card.
Then came another button card from my stash -- this one with dark chocolate buttons. Yum. Tucked behind the button card and peeking out to the right is a cluster of leaves die cut with the largest Turning a New Leaf die.....the yellow patterned paper is more October Afternoon. Can you tell I'm on an OA kick this week? :)
Lastly, I added another postage stamp (also from my recently stamped stash) -- this one, stamped in summer sunrise ink and die cut with the postage die. And to finish things off, I added a tiny tag die cut with the tiny tag die and stamped with a coordinating tag image and the smile sentiment - both from the Tiny Tags stamp set. Just a fun little cluster of goodies that make me smile. Hope they do the same for you.
Before I go, I've got a book to recommend. A Billion Reasons Why by Kristin Billerbeck
This is a modern day (smut free) love story. It's like one of those great chick flicks where you know which two people are meant to be together, but you have to sit back and watch them struggle to figure that out for themselves, and all the while you're wishing the wrong people would just get out of the way to make room for the right people and you're also wishing the meddling family members and friends would stop their meddling and then when the main characters finally figure out they're with the wrong people (even if they haven't figured out who the right ones are yet), you're still cheering that the wrong people are finally out of the picture and then before you know it, all the pieces fall into place and everyone's happy....maybe even the meddling family and friends. It's kind of like that. :)
There's no murder mystery or suspense or action in this one. Just a good, clean love story. If you're a chick flick fan, you'll probably really enjoy this book. I did.
Also, did you happen to see this cute little card over on the CARDS Magazine Blog? Hannah Craner made it using some of the embellies from my Color Couture line. Totally made me smile. :) (Very cute, Hannah!)
