PPA 126

Morning peeps! I hope that everyone is having a good weekend. Mine got off to a nice start with a friend’s birthday party last night. We had lots of fun! Now off to the business at hand! This weeks Pals Paper Arts Challenge is a color challenge. I love the color combination of Baja Breeze, Not Quite Navy and Very Vanilla. I has a nice calming effect.

For my card I used the very cool new Adorning Accents Edgelits dies and the Adorning Accents Textured Impressions Embossing Folders. I love the way they look together, almost like a piping with the nice clean cut. I also used the Labels Collection Framelits Dies. I love how they come in a nice selection of sizes making it easy to layer them for a polished look. The stamp set is a favorite of mine, Nature Walk. I thought that the greeting from the new Loving Thoughts Set of Happiness was appropriate since it appears that the bird has left the cage and is free! A quick punch with the Pinking Hearts Border Punch on each side and some sponging on the edges of the image and the Lattice Squares embossed paper and it’s done. Thanks so much for stopping by and have a great day!
