You Are My Sunshine

I do like the look of chevron with dots inspired by Jillibean papers.  You can see my post yesterday for a look at more chevron with just and itty bitty bit of dots!  Say that fast..."itty bitty bit".  :)

After all the rain we've had we have been having some nice sun lately.  The air had gotten a bit cooler...almost felt like fall but now it's hot again.  I like the heat.  I don't like cold weather at all.  I can handle cold and sunny if it's dry but I am miserable when it's cold and windy and wet!  Wah, wah, wah. What a whiner!  I'd rather sweat than freeze any time (well, except when I sleep).

Papers and stamps used are from Jillibean and were sold in an exclusive kit from Archiver's.  The stamps will also work well for Project Life, I think.  They are cute! 


Terrible photo....I cropped it all wrong.  It's on a 4 1/2 by 5 1/2 inch card base of white cardstock.  But you get the general idea! :)



Very fast and easy card....

And that will be it for today!

Happy Crafting!

Just For You


I bought an exclusive card kit from Archiver's recently which came with Jillibean papers and stamps.  The kit was designed to make small 3x3 cards but I prefer to make standard sized cards.  I mean...what do you do with a zillion 3x3s?  They are good for gift enclosures but you can't really mail 'em so I don't need a zillion of them around.  I'd prefer to have a zillion standard cards in case I might, some day, want to part with one and mail it.  :)

The Jillibean paper was very nice....chevron on one side and dots on the other.  I liked that.
Anyway, easy card today.  Simple stamping and embellishing....


I ran the white cardstock through my Big Shot with a Stampin' Up embossing folder that makes pinpoint clouds.  Love that folder and was glad to finally use it! HAHA!

The butterfly was stamped and cut and popped up on some dimensionals.  I added a little bling to the body of the butterfly.

And that's it.  Fast and easy.
