SPCC#24 .....You're Sweet!


Hello sweet friends!  Coming to you live from sick central!  Ack!  The littlest and I have been laying low this week with nasty colds which is a total bummer anytime but especially coming off of the BEST birthday weekend ever!  I am behind on all kinds of things but one of the most important things on the to do list is to get some thank yous out to some very special friends and family who know how to make a girl feel like a princess!  To get in the thank you groove, a little card using the Sweet Kawaii set from My Cute Stamps and a smashing color combo from SPCC #24!

Now these colors could quite easily serve in the Christmas card capacity...but I saw cherries...go figure?!  Must be all the cold meds and the attitude of thanks I have going right now ;)


Doesn't the MCS cherry stamp go great with the October Afternoon cherry paper?  I also *needed* some vintage looking red and cream DP for the top of the card.  What?!  There isn't any in the October Afternoon DP book of paper.  Hmmmm...well, I'm an industrious girl, I'll just stamp some!  That delish red and cream stamped paper was made using the gorgeous Motif stamp set from Cora at Clearly Vintage. Yum!  The perfect paper for my card.    I also inked, buttoned, pen stitched and embossed to my hearts content.


And finally, a great big "you're sweet" shoutout to all of my friends who left me sweet birthday wishes.  You all are the best!  What a wonderful birthday weekend!!  Thanks so much for stopping by!

Supplies:
Stamps: My Cute Stamps and Clearly Vintage
Paper: October Afternoon, Papertrey and Georgia Pacific'
Punch: SU, CM, EK and lable nestie
Embosser: Cuttlebug
Ink: SU
Other: ribbon
