Pretty Fantastic!

Happy Thursday Fellow Crafters!
Today & Tomorrow I'll be showing you 2 cards I
created using the same paper collection from
Simple Stories - I was making the 1 card that I'll show you today
and I cut out a die sentiment that I though would work on this card
but it didn't look right, so I die cut several more of that same sentiment
in different colors to see what would look best -
But guess what? I didn't think any of them looked good
 with my card! Soooo, instead of throwing away all those
sentiments, I made a 2nd card! LOL

Did any of that make sense to you??? Yeah me neither! LOL
I'll just show ya the card I've got! :)



I just think this card came out so cute! I would've loved to use the 
die sentiment I had in mind, but like I said... it just didn't work for me!

Oh Theresa, you always make me smile when I read your posts! :o) And then you gift us with another sweet creation from your heart! I absolutely LOVE how this turned out! The colors are so warm and dreamy and I are the little scene. Isn't it precious?! The bumble bear has stolen my heart. :o) Gorgeous design and theme, my dear friend. I love the sentiment and look forward to seeing what you have for us next. I hope your evening has been as delightful as this creation. :o)

What a fun, sweet card. That little bee has such a darling face. I love the patterned papers you use, especially the honeycomb print. Great layers and embellishments just bring everything together beautifully!

This IS so cute! I'm glad that you were able to come up with something that you're happy with (and that looks fantastic)! And your "leftovers" look amazing on your thank you card too!
