On the seventh day...

...a CARDS June 2012 pub that sums up this year!
Old, yummy, Websters Pages. Fond memories of WP, as I made my first card with Hero Arts stamps using my brand new "Postcards from Paris" 6x6 pad. To this day, that is my favorite WP collection. :)




This card kinda mixed my styles, even if it was made around two or three years ago - has layers and yet, is a bit CAS at the same time. Plus it has my favorite cardmaking colors - pink and blue. ;)

On the fifth day...

...a card using my two fave colors outside of papercrafting - blue and green.

I felt like I was in this "pink and blue" color phase, so I made myself work with my two favorite colors outside of papercrafting - pink and blue is definitely my fave for making cards. :)


And some stitches, just because I felt like it. ;)

On the fourth day...

....I went cuckoo for the Hero Arts 'Cuckoo' stamp set. :)


However, the "I'm cuckoo for you!" sentiment didn't fit nicely on a small tag, so I went with 'hello'
My first time stamping on felt...


Love that little flower. You know the Websters Pages bloomers? Well, sometimes I only use one rosette, and then there's the little pieces in between. So I saved those little pieces, and made another mini rosette with one. :)
And then, to finish it up, some deeeelicious Girls Paperie...I only was able to get my hands on four sheets, and now there are only bits and pieces left. :( I seriously need to get some more. Wish they came in a 6x6 pad Crate Paper style.
