Crate Paper: Let's Get Started!

I am SO excited to officially announce that I have been invited to be a part of the  2014 Crate Paper design team !!!! I feel so lucky to be a part of Crate Paper's amazing team! My year ahead as a CP Gal is gonna rock! I'm not a stranger to their products so jumping in to design for them is a perfect fit and I'm thrilled that they asked me to be on board!   So I had to make a card to celebrate the kick off of this awesome design team. I layered a lot of accent pieces from the new Maggie Holmes line, Style Board. The touches of gold in this line are amazing! The cork keeps it funky and has great texture. :) The sentiment was stamped from Lawn Fawn's Love You Tons . Thanks for stopping by today and sharing in my excitment!

JFF Sunday: A Camper Card

Hi Everyone! I have a card to share just for fun today!  I recently put together a Pinterest board to follow the outdoors trend. You can see it HERE . I created this card as I was putting together the board. I LOVE this camper found in the Dear Lizzy Polka Dot collection. The whole card was built around the camper. The Paper Smooches sentiment was the perfect fit. I finished the card by picking colors and embellishments to compliment the camper. :) Thanks for stopping by today!  Supplies: Get Outta Town Hero Arts Dye Ink, Black Studio Calico, Classic Calico Vol. 2 Wood Veneer, Hearts and Arrows *American Crafts Dear Lizzy 366205 Printed Cardstock Shapes Polka Dot Party Lawn Fawn Clear Stamps, Pink Lemonade Single Cord *American Crafts Dear Lizzy LARGE TAGS Lucky Charm InLinkz.com
