Christmas in July

Trying to get a start on the cards that I will need for Christmas.
I love this cuddlebug folder (snowflakes). I added pearls and a couple of foam glitter flakes. Adding a few glitter brads to the center of the foam flakes just added a bit of pop

Ink: cherry cobbler
Accessories: ribbon, brads, pearls, foam flakes

Summer by the shore


I found this really cute card to case: http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/ga...;ppuser=120824

I changed some of the colors..
Used eyelets instead of brads
I kept the designer paper as a background and the girl as the main focus point
I also used quite a bit of the yellow as Stephanie did.
I used paper piercing instead of sewing

Summer Sun

I used the new color Daffodil Delight too help create this card. The main card has tone on tone of daffodil delight. The flower and image panel are colored with various shades of copic markers in yellows. The Top Note die panel is always artichoke. I picked up these cute tiny brads at Michaels and combined the brads with paper piercing for the total effect
