TLC418 ~ Gotta Love Circles

This card came together quickly. I had previously punched these golden circles and just adhered them to a 3.25” sq piece of white card stock, mounted on another white piece and popped up.

The hair bow is made by Pipinka for more info go to her ETSY shop. I thought that this would be a perfect card for a little girl with gift attached.

Celebrating 400th Sketch Challenge

In celebrating 400 Sketch Challenges at SCS we were to go back to previous sketches. There are 399 and all just grand. I took a shine to this Sketch SC235. I was intrigued by all the circles and thought that the Stampin Up' "Just Believe" cling set with the floral circle stamp was the perfect choice. This is also one the new in colors "summer starfruit". The sentiment is Verve and Spellbinders' dies.
