~So Many Cards, So Little Time~ Part II
I'm back with yet another creation today using the sweet, lil, bingo cards :) and my most favourite paper collection by Melissa Frances....So in love with the pastel shades and subtle designs...Sigh...
However...It's a beautiful day outside (ETA: and by beautiful - I mean cloudy lol), so today will be a short post...And to add to that, there are many things to still accomplish today as I have a very busy week coming up....
Shall I share? Oh alright!...You twisted my rubber arm.... :)
I just happen to be heading out of the city for a few days next week, to meet none-other-than my absolute FAVOURITE scrapper of all time.....
.....

So yes...That is one of the *awesome* things that I've been so excited to share with you! Oh and the fact that, come August, I will be starting my new manegerial position at our BRAND NEW LSS!
So what do we absolutely need to do before the shop opens? Well educate ourselves, of course! So we are taking a fabulous girls-only trip to Edmonton to meet the amazing Ms. Bolme and to take not one, but two of her spectacular classes!
The store has already pre-ordered all of Ingvild's (partnering with Prima) beautiful tools, embellies and inks and now we will get to use them ourselves!
So I might have missed out on CHA, but I feel like this completely makes up for it...And then some!
So now you know two bits of the exciting news I've been wanting to share with you for so long! It has been soooooo hard to keep it all in! As each day passes, the store opening inches closer and closer, and I have been wanting to tell you all for so long!
And, in case you're wondering, that is the reason I have been so busy lately...With the new store opening soon, lots of exciting design opportunities, classes and such...My blogging has left something to be desired. :(
But I promise...Once things get back to my normal routine...I will be able to share so much more exciting info with you all
Now back to the card....I can hear it screaming out in neglect
I tend to always need a few baby cards so I thought the MF papers were just perfect for the soft baby look...Don't cha think so? And since I was on a roll with the bingo cards+lovely papers...I figured I couldn't go wrong...
I used a combination of MF diecuts+MF vintage stickers+MF papers...And of course a few of my own embellies like that lil star button :)
The bingo card and the baby pennant are my pride and joy....In case you missed the last post...I have been urging myself to learn Photoshop...And these little cuties are some of my first creations...I am literally patting myself on the back as I speak...I mean, type...
Oh and is that a doily stamp I see poking from under the sentiment?...I still love it to bits and will use it on every project until I bore of it! You might not all share my enthusiasm, so if you get sick of seeing it, please let me know :) I can't promise that I'll stop, though...Maybe I should challenge myself to use it in all of my projects for the rest of the month...What do you think? Silly? I know. Don't mind me.
Anywho....the card also features another custom-dyed ribbon (I looooove vintage pink Glimmer Mist)...
And the ever-adorable little banner from one of the MF patterened papers...
Peeking from the bottom of the card is a border I punched with this Martha Stewart punch...And he yellow lace is by Prima...
Well...
I'm all out writing brainpower, and my work is calling...So I will catch you here tomorrow as I post my next card! :)
Happy weekend wishes!
