Happy Weekend! Can't belive school is starting this week. I'm sooooo sad. We have had the most amazing summer and I don't want it to come to an end. I love being home with Ryan and hearing him running around the house and the yard with the neighborhood kids. Getting back to the grind of school and homework is something I'm just dreading....
On a happier note, the folks from
Bazzill sent me some goodies to play with AND some to give away. I created this card using their new Beach House paper line.
While the line is beachy in theme, there are so many wonderful patterns and motifs that work for other things! I decided to make a masculine birthday card.
I cut the little tags and created a banner with them. I added some star veneers for more texture and stamped with a Studio Calico stamp.
Here is the entire collection. Isn't it fun. I especially love the light colored woodgrain paper in the photo above!
I used the Card Shoppe cardstock, too. Whirlypop was the perfect blue to go with the blues in the patterned paper.
So, now for the fun part! I have a 6 by 6 pack of Beach House, along with a pack of Card Shoppe cardstock containing all the colors above! Just leave me a comment by Tuesday, the 28th (midnight EST) for a chance to win.
Thanks for stopping by!
It's such a beautiful card! I really love the cute banner made of tags.
