A shabby mini album... 33

Hi there! I hope you are having a great week! Angie and I have been gathering pretty trims, buttons and embellishments ~ some gently used, some new.

I put those findings to good use and made a mini shabby album while featuring beautiful Pion design patterned papers from the My Precious Daughter collection. (I apologize that the sentiment tag didn't photograph very well :( it reads: Know in your heart you are loved":

I love all the pretty patterned papers included in the My Precious Daughter collection:

as well as the sweet images:

Thanks so much for stopping by!
Be Sweet ;)

Hi there! It's my turn to share a project along with a tutorial for this week's Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge where the theme is Anything Goes.

I was inspired to create a greeting card for a special friend:

I think it's important to remind our friends who much we appreciate them and a homemade greeting card made from the heart is a perfect way to do just that. I wanted to create a feminine shabby vibe so, I combined a delicate die cut butterfly and wreath with pretty pastel papers from the Wallflower collection.

I think this card will bring a smile to my friend's face. Thanks so much for visiting! I hope you enjoyed my project and I hope I have inspired you to give it a try and join along with the Simon Says Stamp Monday Stamp Challenge!
Be Sweet ;)
