Graduation Card

I've never chosen this color combination for a card before but was in a mood to try something new and I really love how the white, pink and yellow give the card a summery and fresh feel.

Handlettered Birthday Card

I made this card a while ago when I started crafting and didn't have many supplies. I used Distress Inks for the background and a Faber Castell Brush Pen for the handlettered sentiment. What a great reminder that simple can be pretty, too :)

Peony Wedding Card

When I was asked to create a vintage wedding card for a friend I went through my stash and found this beautiful vintage looking sticky fabric that I bought a while ago. I think it is a beautiful background and goes very well with my Altenew peony stamps. I heat embossed the peonies and colored them in shades of blue and light beige.

Aloha Spirit Birthday Card

I wanted to create a busy floral background with the Aloha Spirit stamp set from Create A Smile Stamps. It required a lot of masking which always takes time but I think it was totally worth the effort. I love how the white embossed sentiment pops on the black cardstock.
