It's a Good Day to have a Good Day!!

Today I am sharing a card I created for a recent swap with the theme of Picnic/Food. I am using the retired Newton's Nook Woodland Picnic stamp set for my card today. I don't think this set has ever seen ink, yikes!!


I paired the cute critters with some fun papers from Doodlebug and some dies from my stash. 




I hope my swap partner likes it! It was fun to get all those critters colored up with my Copics and arrange them on the card. It's a little busy but I thought it was a fun picnic scene!

Have a good day! Go do something for yourself and go get crafty!

Summer Vibes Collab | Die Cut Card

I'm excited to be doing a little collab today with my friend, Teresa of the Fresh and Renewed with Teresa channel! Teresa started the summer with a series, Summer Vibes where she shares summer themed cards each Friday. I wasn’t able to join her at the beginning of the series but I’m happy to be joining her now each week!

Watch my video HERE for this week!

Today's card uses a stamp/die bundle that I got from Stampin' Up but haven't used yet, the Notes & Totes Bundle. Sadly it is no longer available. I used several paper pads with the dies to create all the die cuts. 




Have a super day! Go do something for yourself and go get crafty!
