Oh Happy Day

Happy Monday! This is Kim and I am here to share with you this card using the adorable image from the Banner Girl & Words stamp set. I went with a pinkish red and green color combo to color the image in. I then added some highlights to her hair and headband with a white gel pen. I placed clear glue onto the flower petals and dipped the flowers in the Glitz and Red Microfine Glitter. I used the Fancy Leaf sweet cut die and placed it behind the flowers.

Flowers flowers and more flowers

Josette here with another fun card. This card is nothing but die cuts, a little glitter and a simple saying. I call this my scrap card. When I am making backgrounds, there are often many failed attempts. Either the wrong color or "something" just not right. Additionally, whenever I have a puddle of ink on my craft sheet, I "mop" it up with a piece of water color paper. I buy my water color paper in very large tablets and cut them down. There is always that 1-2 inch strip of paper left over. That is what I use for mopping up, or testing a color. Additionally, there are times when I need to cut down a background, those large scraps get saved. I have a little bucket of these color swatches and it is from this bucket that I made todays card was created from.
