time to celebrate

Any busy mum will be able to relate to the elation felt in finally getting up to date with those tasks that have been on the 'to do' list forever! Well I'm finally getting on top of blogging all of my favorite cards from the last 6 months. Only 2 more to go after this post...so get excited there are a couple more on their way!!! Life with 3 boys 5 (and a puppy - kinda counts as an extra child!) is anything but dull. Card making is definitely my 'out time!' 

This is a card we will be making at my next class in mid June. If you're living in Adelaide and are interested in coming along to a class please feel free to get into contact with me. 

To create this:

My background paper is Gold Soiree (yes I know I'm a little obsessed with this DSP....and I just ordered another 2 packets as it's retiring today!) The next layer is a piece of crisp cantaloupe card stock cut with the scalloped tag topper. I've used a layer of vellum and the main image is stamped onto watercolour card stock with stayz on black ink. The image is from the hostess set 'Time to celebrate'. I've water coloured it with crisp cantaloupe and hello honey. The sentiment is embossed in white on a piece of hello honey cardstock. The ribbons I've used include the calypso coral pompom trim and another ribbon I had at home.
