...hello...

So with that title, are you singing Adele's song, 'hello'? LOL

I made this card several weeks ago, just love the watercolor background. I used MFT's blueprints 10 to cut the small panel and used the negative of the hello die, also from MFT. Tied on some twine and a sweet little heart charm and called it good. Definitely CAS, clean and simple.

Thanks for stopping by, make it a great day!!

By Your Side - Take 1, Shown as Take 3

HA - how's that for a confusing title? This is the very first card I made with the By Your Side stamp set and dies...I kinda sorta liked it, but then I didn't like it AT ALL. So I set it aside and made two others; you can see those HERE.

But as I was gathering up cards this past week, I saw this one again and decided I DO kind of like it!

:D

Inside

Lots going on, maybe that's why I struggled with it? The designer paper is scraps, the birds were cut from Concord and 9th Happy Hues card stock and accented with Inktense Pencils and water, I cut 2 and mounted the top layer with fun foam. I used Hero Arts Arrow Pattern stencil in the background randomly sponging on pink and yellow. I stamped the gorgeous sentiment in brown and continued the sentiment on the inside.

Thanks for stopping by, hope you have a great week!!
