Double Angled Gatefold Card....

If you follow me on Instagram, you might've already seen this cute little card using the Paper Pumpkin for May and asking my followers which they preferred - "this" or "that" 😊

-------------------------------------------------------------------

I also made some to send to customers and included a free tutorial pdf so they could make their own. This card features the Boho Vibes 6x6 DSP as well as some of the Celebratory Sips DSP. I used the NEW Cloud Cover (2025-2027 In Color) 8-1/2 x 11 Cardstock for the base - you can get two bases from one sheet of cardstock...win-win! I added some Darling Duckling Ribbon on this card and some Flat Pearls. Now that they've all had time to receive their little package, I wanted to share with all of you!

------------------------------------------------------------

The belly band is made from one of the DSP patterns from the Celebratory Sips, a sentiment from Textured Notes Stamp Set, punched using the Heartfelt Hexagon Punch...

-------------------------------------------------------------

By adding the pops of color using coordinating Ribbon and Flat Pearls (using the 2025-2027 In Colors), it just makes that sweet little sentiment pop! I also stamped an inside sentiment using the Textured Notes Stamp Set as well...

-------------------------------------------------------------

The embossed inside panel definitely steals the show on this one...I used the Glass & Gardens Embossing Folders (the glass one)...

Summer Fun...

I joined some of my crafty friends last weekend for our monthly hop featuring a Sketch we find (or create) online.

This month's sketch came from Page Maps, I believe, and the theme was Summer Fun. I immediately knew what I was going to create!

From the moment I saw the 6x6 Fruit Salad DSP (part of the Sale-a-Bration earlier this year), I knew I was going to be using it with a photo I took of our youngest son at Son's Island. What I didn't know is how PERFECT this layout would turn out!

---------------------------------------------------------------

I actually did TWO Videos for this one - the first was for the YT Hop and the second one was to add some finishing touches. I hope you'll watch both of them and let me know what you think...

Head on over to YT to watch the videos so you can interact, like, share, comment, etc. You will find links to the products I used below or you can always click the links in my Video. 

Thanks so much for stopping by! I hope y'all have a WONDERFUL WEEK 😊
