Ariana: Smile Card

Here is another card using the very elegant Ariana paper.  I wanted to make a fun and playful card that can be used as an any occasion card or even as a birthday card.  This was a breeze to through together, plus I used one of our new E-sized stamp sets called, Marquee Uppercase.  Check out the raised embossed dots!!  That is made using our NEW Embossing folders.  I hope you like it!  Thanks for stopping by! :)

Ariana: Happy Mother's Day Card

I am on a roll today!!  I couldn't wait until tomorrow to post this card.  I used Mojo Monday sketch 333 for inspiration.  I am making a bunch of artwork to display at my next Hostess Club meeting.  I don't normally have much artwork to display very often, but I have so much paper in my stash (I know...I say that a lot).  I am a paper hoarder!!  I admit it...I buy the paper and then it ends up in my paper organizer, untouched for a looooong time!  I have made a deal with myself to use it up faster than I normally do.  I am ashamed of my stash and I need to use it.  Makes sense, right?!  Let's see if I can do it!  So....if all goes well, you will be seeing a lot more posts and most likely paper that you can't buy anymore. ;)  Thanks for stopping by!

Ariana: Cherish Everyday Moments

Hello!  I just finished up making this Pretty Ariana layout.  I showed this to my husband and right away he says, "Ahhh....it's alright....kind of old lady."  I know...the roses remind me of Grandma, but, I think that is Perfect!  I am actually really proud of how this turned out.  Grandma would be proud too!!  I bought all of the new paper packets and this is the first one I have cut into (minus Lollydoodle...that's for my Hostess club).  I didn't buy the accessories that coordinate with Ariana, but I found the March SOTM from 2013 really fit well.  I hope you don't think it is too old lady. ;)  Thanks for stopping by!
