Happy World Card Making day to my fellow papercrafters!  I couldn't let the day go by without sharing a card with you!  This is one of the cards that I recently submitted to a submission call for Paper Crafts Magazine.  Sadly, this one didn't make the cut, but one of mine did!  YAY! :)  Look for my in the Card Creations, Volume 11 issue due out in the spring!

For this card, I used a bunch of Paper Smooches stamps including Halloweenies, Forest Whimsy and Sunny Side Up.  The grass is from a PTI set called Love Lives Here.

Hope you all are getting some crafty time today!  Enjoy the rest of your weekend!! :)

Supplies:

Stamps: Paper Smooches Halloweenies, Forest Whimsy, Sunny Side Up, PTI Love Lives Here

Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black, PTI Orange Zest

Paper: PTI White

Happy World Card Making Day!

Happy World Card Making Day! :) I hope all of my card making friends are having a blast today, and are enjoying every minute of this day dedicated to the hobby that we all love so much. With stamping, I feel like I have finally found my niche in the creative world. I absolutely LOVE playing with paper and ink, and it bring so much enjoyment and relaxation to my life.

Today, I wanted to make a thank you card, because I am thankful for this hobby. I am thankful for a creative outlet, and for all of the wonderful stamping/card making friends that I have met along the way.



I will also be entering this card in the Paper Smooches SPARKS Challenge. There is still time to participate! :)



I used paper streamers and scortape to make the ruffle at the bottom. So fun! And of course, the card is pink to go along with the challenge, but also in honor of the start of Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Paper Smooches also introduced a BCA Stamp Set, called Hope. It is available for purchase now, and 50% of the profits will be donated to the National Breast Cancer Foundation. I already ordered mine! :)
