May All Your Wishes Come True!

Wishing for Playtime!


To think that I thought life would slow down when school got out!  😂   After a week of acting camp last week I was ready for a break...so I started my summer job!  Ok, so maybe that wasn't much of a break, but I do get to love on dogs while I'm there!  Tomorrow might have to be a morning of play to make up for having to work the rest of the day and through Sat...

But today...





I was super excited to find out that Donna chose my card in the Watercooler Wednesday Challenge.  Be sure to check out the feminine cards in that challenge as well as their new masculine one.  This is my card from my One Sheet Wonder Set that was chosen.  


I'm still a sucker for the watercolor flowers on this paper and the beaded paper flowers!  Check out my template for how to use a double-sided sheet of paper to make 5 cards.  Even though I've been working at my summer job and doing a few school meetings I do have a card to share today.  One is better than none, right?  
May All Your Wishes Come True Card

This one uses some springy paper from the Kathy Davis - Happiness Paper Pad.  I love flowers in general.  My Mom has had a beautiful flower garden for as long as I can remember and while this paper may not have my irises, they are still super cute!  I love the color scheme she uses for this paper pad and have several more cards mapped out.  (Have I mentioned I have way too many things I want to make?!?)  Check out these cute papers:



Kathy Davis - Happiness Paper Pad


I started with a piece of my Recollections Storm Clouds 110lb paper as my card base.  I chose some complimentary paper from the paper pad and matted with purple cardstock.  I stamped my sentiment from Stampin' Up's - Heard from the Heart stamp set.  I love the swirled handwriting look of "Wishes" on the stamp. 

My layout was based upon OWH sketch #37.
  


My husband has a frog friend in our backyard that seems to almost hang out with him, so I finished off with some embellishments from Jolee's including a super cute dimensional frog sticker and dragonfly.  I used a little clear Wink of Stella to add a little shimmer and some green Jolee's gems for the final touch.
A little shimmer and some froggy fun!

I made a couple of cards from the same layout but used a couple different frogs.


Now if the rain would just stop long enough for me to play in the flowers a little bit...although that might interfere with my excuse to be inside making cards!  Hope you have a bright, shiny day!

Craft Show Fun

 Decided it was time to clear out some of my cards so I participated in a couple of craft shows with my dear friend,  Karen.  She makes awes...
