Smile






















I made this card for The Color Throwdown,CTC86 and for Just Us Girls sketch challenge, JUGS27.
I used PTI Wishing You set and Basicgrey Origins designer paper.  I want to remind you that all  Imaginisce and Bella Blvd designer paper is 15% off, now would be a great time to pick some up.  I added PTI ribbon, a button, and a little stitching.  The main image is framed to give it more depth.  Be sure to check back in the morning I will be sharing this weeks Cupcake Inspiration Challenge.  Enjoy.

Stamps:  PTI Wishing You
Paper:  Bazzil Mud Pie, Avalanche, and Basicgrey Orgins Designer Paper
Ink:  SU Wild Wasabi and Summer Sun
Accessories:  Janome, PTI Ribbon, Button, Linen Thread, EK Success Slim Edger Border Punch, Circle Nesties, Silver Beads, and Glue Dots


























Wow, it is a gorgeous day here in VA, it is about 80 degrees and the sun is shinning brightly......it is definitely something to smile about!  I am sharing a super simple CAS card today.  The colors and texture are from the Play Date Cafe, PDCC23 and for the challenge over at Crafting in Croatia, to use this sketch shown.  I used an embossing folder sponged with navy ink, added ribbon, border punched bottom, and the smile sentiment from Verve.

  14. Wow, these are both gorgeous, Teresa. I love how you do your bows. Thanks for playing along with my sketch. Oh, and I love your button that says, "Giving God the Glory." Amen! (though I know sometimes it's hard to do).
