I have a bright and fun card for you today using Words of Wisdom and the I Heart U Cut Above Dies.


I stamped the sentiment on a Curvy Bookplate, using the border from Tag Time. The adorable arrow points to the U from I Heart U, which I covered with glue and glittered up. You'll also notice a leaf accent, stamped with the image from Sunny Days and cut with the Leafy Sprigs die.

I have a BUNCH of that narrow Grosgrain that I barely ever use, but it was just right here and I finished off with some liquid enamel accents.

Here's a closer look at the sparkle...


Here's the inside of my card...


I repeated the Curvy Bookplate sentiment treatment and finished the inside of my card with some leftover pieces of my patterned paper and another Leafy Sprig.

Thanks so much for visiting today - it's time for you to hop over and see the lovely Sony. Happy hopping!
