Be sure to stop by and check out the DT and see their cards too. They are gorgeous.
I seem to be in a very “toned-down” design style lately. I’m not sure why, because I really like the frilly style, but I just seem to do a simple layout.
My paper is by Basic Grey and I loved the crackle effect. The only other elements are the brads that I used, the nestibility to cut the digi and an embossing folder by Provocraft that I colored lightly with my Prismacolor Pencils.

Thank you for stopping by. I’m a little late getting my post up today, but my baby, (my schnauzer) Oliver had five seizures night before last and all he wanted yesterday and last night was for me to hold him and let him sleep in my lap. So what’s a mom to do?

What a beautiful card! I love the background, and that image is just too cute.
I really like your background layout, the bradz really add a lot to it.
Speaking of flowers, we planted zinnias earlier this year and they've reseeded themselves so although I ripped them all out when they were passed they are absolutely coming up EVERYWHERE! Oh well, I think it adds something to a vege garden, don't you? (like more weeding) lol
I love how the clean and simple style really allows your beautiful coloring to shine!! Thanks for sharing this with us at Tuesday Throwdown.
Aww isn't that red wagon sweet. Brings back so wonderful memories. I love how you paid it with this awesome embossing folder. Just lovely. Thank you so much for playing along in Speedy the Cat's Challenge. It is a pleasure to come and visit and see your work. Hope you can play again with us next week.
