Quick and Cute

happy birthdayDid you have a nice weekend?  I went to the movies TWICE this past weekend!  I love going to the movies but lately it seems that I rarely go. My daughter, Jenny, and I saw Saving Mr. Banks and August:  Osage County – two completely opposite movies.  We had lots of fun and lots of conversation after each one!

Today I have a happy birthday card that was so easy to put together.  The base of my card is Island Indigo with a piece of Watercolor Wonder DSP on top of it.  I love this DSP!  The greens and blues are so pretty and I decided to use it on my card as if it was a piece of wrapping paper on a gift.  It is “tied up” with our pretty organza ribbon. I stamped a few flowers from the set Petite Petals on a piece of Whisper White cut out with a Chalk Talk Framelit.  My sentiment is from Sassy Salutations.  I used snail to adhere this piece to my card but think it might look nicer with some Stampin’ Dimensionals.  If you are looking for a quick and cute card, this is it!

Thanks so much for stopping by today!

Perfection

IMG_0940

I posted this card a few days ago and I’ve made a video to go with it.  One of my goals this year is to not be so hard on myself.  Sometimes I expect whatever I do to be perfect, especially putting something out on the internet!!!!  I’ve wanted to do videos for a long time and I decided that I just need to jump in.  I heard a great quote a few weeks ago and I’ve been mulling it over in my mind, “Perfection is the enemy of progress.”  My videos will continue to get better over time but I have to just jump in and START!  So, here is my video for this card!
