Sunshine and Laughter

I needed several quick cards recently, and relied upon a pretty boring basic sketch to get me there.


What makes it a bit more special:  fancy patterned paper, a few punched hydrangea florets (topped with Liquid Pearls), and a sentiment on a stitched rectangle die.  Oh!  And half of a small doily die cut, tucked up under the sentiment panel.


Love quick and simple cards for those busy times!



Stamps: Brighter Days - Verve Paper: Orchid Opulence, Pretty In Pink, Pink Pirhouette, Pale Plum - Stampin' Up!; white - Papertrey Ink; floral - Joann's Accessories & Tools: Hydrangea punch - Martha Stewart; Stitched Rectangle die - L'il Inkers; Mini Delicate Doilies die - My Favorite Things/ Die-namics; Lemon Yellow Liquid Pearls - Ranger
