Girly Girl

These two cards I made with the help of my 6 year old daughter. She loves dance and she loves being a girly girl. I used the Daydream paper pack and the Family Ties - Children stamp set. This stamp set is so cute.
Happy Scrappin'

You Brighten my Day!

When I started this card I had no idea what I was going to do with it. I like how it turned out. The Ms. Gardner stamp set has to be one of my favorites. I used the Unforgettable paper pack. Enjoy!

After Vacation Creations

While I was on vacation I visited this Scrapbooking store and found some really cute stamp sets. I visit this store every year and seem to buy the whole theme of stamps that they have. I know they are on wood blocks and to me they are a little difficult to use since I only use Close to my Heart's clear acrylic stamps but I think the cards I made still turned well.
Enjoy!
Princess Card: Key Lime, Baby Pink, Hollyhock, stickles, cuttlebug embossing folder

Once Upon a Time: Key Lime, Baby Pink, Hollyhock, stickles, white embossing powder on castle, cuttlebug embossing folder

Believe in your dreams: Key Lime, baby pink, hollyhock, prisma glitter
