Wishing you Happiness..

Hi all and happy Thursday to you!  Hope you all have been enjoying your week.  It's been absolutely gorgeous and sunny here lately so I thought I would share a little sunshine with you guys inspired by the Fabulous Ladies at CR84FN and their current Color Challenge #30. Check out these beautiful colors they chose for us to play with this week.

Aren't these colors just super pretty or what!  8-)  Well, I sure thought so, and they just so perfectly reflected the beautiful sunny weather we've been having here the last few days that I just had to create something sunny and cheerful too.


My Hero Arts Sentiment was stamped with Memento Rich Coco onto layered Ovals and a Scalloped Oval that I made up with my Nesties sets and a bit of CS from my stash. I inked the edges up with Antique Linen Distress Ink and popped it up with some dimensionals.  for my BG Layers I chose a combination of  kraft CS from my stash and some beautiful digi DP from Sassy Designs' Heirloom collection. I added some texture & dimension with the help of my CB and the victorian embossing folder and then added a fun little corner details with my Corner Chomper.  My sweet butterflies were cut with my Cricut using the Bloom cartridge and then blinged up with a few adhesive pearls. To finish it all up, I added a bit of ivory seem binding ribbon, a fun little button, hemp twine and a few more pretty adhesive pearls for the corners. 8-)

Hope you all have a Fabulous day & thanks so much for visiting!
Thanks for stopping by!
