Hello friends! Today is Blog Party day with Waltzingmouse Stamps and all friends and family of WMS are welcome to party along! If you're new to the party, head over to the WMS blog to get started - there's still plenty of time to play along! :)
The theme of the party this month is "luck" and I couldn't very well not use green on St. Patrick's Day, could I? So, even if my card isn't St. Patty's themed, it is still in the color of the day! I've been on a holding pattern with getting new supplies lately simply because I have SO MUCH stuff already and still haven't unpacked it from the move. I sometimes wonder whether we are the laziest movers on the planet because we have a ton of unopened boxes - mostly our books and our hobby supplies (Glen is a musician and I think most of his guitars and keyboards still haven't seen the light of day since October!
Anyway, I finally ordered some new things that debuted during winter CHA and thought this new Dear Lizzy line (aptly named Lucky Charm) was springy and pretty and perfect for this project. I started off with two of the coordinating patterned papers that I stuck together with a nice, thick piece of washi tape, added a die cut jar from the collection, and then stamped the gorgeous Labels 18 image in pale yellow and a sentiment from Compact Sentiments II. I finished the card with some pink flowers.
Thanks so much for visiting today!
Supplies: Stamps (WMS), DP - Lucky Charm (Dear Lizzy/American Crafts), Labels 18 Die (Spellbinders), Ink - Basic Black, Barely Banana (SU!), Flowers (Petaloo), Washi Tape (Studio Calico), Cuttlebug
Unpacking is no fun at all. This card however if full of fun! Just adorable love your pink jar filled with wishing stars and all the pretty papers and bright happy colors. Love it!
ReplyDeleteA breath of fresh spring air on the hop, Jen! Love the pastel colors and the lovely sentiment label in such a sunny yellow! Gorgeous little flowers, too!
ReplyDeleteSuch a cute card
ReplyDeleteSuch a fun take on the theme this month! Love all the fun colors and flower accents!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card, the papers are just stunning. Unpacking I think is harder than packing hands down. Think of all the treasures you have yet to uncover!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun and colorful card.
ReplyDeleteJen - this is really sweet - I do like the wishing jar! A very pretty card.
ReplyDeleteI know just what you mean about unpacking!! When we moved to our house in Wales in 2006 I thought we'd opened all the boxes - that was until we packed to move to the US in 2012 - I found some unopened boxes ;) So glad too as I found some photos that I thought I'd lost. Good luck with the rest of your unpacking. Hugs, xx
This is great Jen. Thanks for the inspiration to use my WIDE washi tape. It looks amazing on your card as do all the other elements you have used on this fun card!
ReplyDeletewhat a bright pretty card Jen!
ReplyDeletethat's what we all need: a lot of luck!!!!!
ReplyDeleteLove your card.
Love from Holland.
Beautiful card! Loving all the layers Jen! :)
ReplyDeleteOh I hate to tell you this Jen, but I have boxes in my garage from when we moved in 20 years ago that have never been unpacked - I don't even know what's in them... YIKES! Could be lost treasure! Doubt it! I like the mason jar of wishes! Fun and creative (as always!!)
ReplyDeleteSo pretty Jen, those papers are gorgeous, and I love the fun washi tape and the beautiful label in that spring yellow!
