Fun Cards

I recently completed a few cards that I thought were fun.

The first two are for MLS.

On the home one, I used their overlays on a painted and Shimmerz spritzed background. I sewed around the edges to add more texture.


I also sewed on the second MLS card to give the illusion of a pieced background. I'm so tricky....


The raised hedgehog adds just enough balance to the bling cherries while bringing the eye down to the sentiment at the bottom. (SRM Stickers)

My third card was made using Nikki Sivils papers. When I made this card, I thought I was just the cleverest girl in the world. (giggle)


Have a great day!

xoxo
Bethany
