For my card today, I pulled out The Sweet Life collection from Melissa Frances and mixed it with a few of my other favorite collections. If you haven't visited Everyday is a Holiday, you just have to...it's a place filled with pink, aqua, and happiness. Jenny and Aaron are the creators of this sweet line for Melissa Frances. Treat yourself :).
My background paper is from the Classic Elegance collection. The colors and patterns tie in so perfectly with The Sweet Life. And I love using a Melissa Frances vellum envelope whenever possible, as they create such a soft background effect.
Melissa Frances German Glass Glitter around the outside of my journal cards is a favorite technique of mine and brings in some sparkle and shine and I love using this lovely glitter so much that I added it to my second card as well.
For this card, I used one of my most favorite images and sentiments found on a Sweet Life journal card.
I added a large resin wreath applique to frame in this sweet face :).
A bit of pink crocheted trim near the bottom edge mixed with patterned paper and my card is ready to share with someone special.
As always, the beautiful scrunched seam binding used on my cards today is from My Craft Spot.
Enjoy your day!
Melissa
Both cards are simply stunning. Beautiful as always.
