Sugar and Spice

Sugar and Spice and Everything Nice!  That's what little girl's are made of...unless you're talking about my little Ava who tends to have a mean streak!  Oh well she's our baby and she knows it.  For this card I used the colors red, pink and neutral from this week's challenge over at CR84FN.  I recently purchased some vintage trims and laces from an antique store in my area.  I was so thrilled to find such a vast amount of vintage goodness I wanted to use some of my new finds on this card.  I used patterned paper from SU called Bella Rose, which I stitched around the edges.  The sentiment is from Verve called, "To the Moon".  I then added my new vintage finds along with some pearl flourishes.  Well I hope everyone has a wonderful week, and thank you so much for stopping by.

Here all the yummy goodness I purchased over the weekend.  I have a blogoversary coming up and I would love to put some blog candy together to celebrate!

It's Your Day

What a wonderful Sunday it has been.  I went back to my home town to celebrate the Our Lady of Grace 100th Anniversary.  This little church has been filled with farmers, and small town folks every Sunday for as long as I can remember.  It was nice to see my own son running around with the children of my high school friends.  One of which is my dearest friend who celebrates her birthday one day after mine.  This is the card I created for her.  I used the colors in the CR84FN Color Challenge 31.  In this challenge the colors were a light pink, green, and a neutral color.  I used pink pirouette cardstock from Stampin Up as my base and a patterned paper from The Girl's Paperie.  I added some lace trim and seam binding along with a rose trim.  I tucked a tag under the trim and stamped my sentiment and framed up with a vanilla frame from Stampin Up.  The burlap heart I cut out from some fabric I had, and adhered some pearls down the center.  I love this challenge because all the entries are so lovely to look at as well as the inspiration from the Design Team.  There is still time to enter this challenge because it will for the rest of the summer be a biweekly challenge.  So you have a plenty time to check it out and play along.   I hope everyone has had a wonderful Sunday.
