I'm off to the polls here in a bit. Sierra decided this morning she didn't want to be left out, so her daddy and I will take her with us to vote. I think it's important that she realizes how wonderful it is to have the right to vote. What an exciting day! Saying extra prayers for America today.
Freckled Fawn is having a fun Election Day event at I am Doe with a giveaway thrown in as well. You can read more about it HERE....washi tapes up for grabs!
This card was created for the I am Doe blog and is based on a lovely, vibrant color combination. I used several different washi tapes here including: Star Line, Freckled Fawn Woodgrain, Polka Dot with Heart, Pink Airmail, and Vintage Ticket Stub.
The stamps are from Papertrey Ink and include 2011 Holiday Tags and Over, Under, Easy. Scrunched seam binding is from My Craft Spot. The "enjoy" sticker is from Heidi Swapp....I have loved her handwriting forever it seems. I love these stickers.
It's a busy day today...my husband's birthday, election day, and I need to bake and cook and soak it all in.
Thanks for stopping by!

What a bright and beautiful card :) I just read your post in regards to the new journey you are beginning! How wonderful and exciting for you and your family. The love you have for your daughter bursts right through the computer screen every time I read your blog and some little baby out there will be so lucky to feel that love one day soon! We are lucky to have one amazing 6 year old boy. We lost 3 babies and I miss them each and every day. I am 5 months pregnant now and pray every day that this baby will join our family. The loss of a baby or the absence of one that you have wished and prayed for is such a difficult thing to bear. I am so happy that you have your faith, a wonderfully supportive husband and your little Bean to lean on! As well as your mom to say just what you need to hear! Enjoy your journey and look forward to sharing your love with a new little bundle of joy soon!
