I recently managed to get a scalloped square die set in a closeout of My Favorite Things products. I did some test cuts in a few colors and they were looking for a home. In August I used the flower image on a Diva inspiration card & had stamped an extra image. Decided it worked perfectly with the scalloped squares and colored it accordingly for my CCC card. I also had a new HELLO die picked up in an exclusive bundle from Simple Pleasures (a store in Colorado that will ship orders that I call in). If you know me, you know I love the BPD Sugar Script font!! This bundle was such a great deal that I ordered it knowing it contained two dies I already owed (gifted them to a friend)!
Thinking that mail to India might be slow, I got Ashwini's address early. I was so eager to get the card into the outgoing mail that I forgot to photograph it!! So thanks to Ashwini for sending a photo once the card arrived - well in time, I might add!! But had I waited for the normal mail time, it would've taken far into October for arrival...
I received this darling card from Linda in Michigan - haven't received from her in a couple of years so that was nice. I love her stunning flower atop the pretty pattern!
Want to play along for October? Go HERE for details by October 6th.
Thanks for stopping by and have a crafty day!!
