Sing it if you know it!



Our friends at Shopping our Stash Blog have served up a challenge to create a card inspired by a song.  Happy birthday was banned from the line up but I didn't need it because of this sweet PTI "Phrase Play" stamp set and die combo : )


I used both sides of  a pp by My Mind's Eye called "Sunshine Lovely Plaid Paper" - the stars are cut from the reverse side of the plaid. Some solid yellow cs from my stash for the die cut and a swipe of yellow gingham Washi Tape.  The Kraft border inside and out are from CTMH.  It is hard to see in the picture but I added a few mustard colored star "tails" : ) and then  some gold sequins for a final bit of sparkle : )


Thank you all so much for all the wonderful comments and cheering you are doing to encourage me in my goal of creating 100 cards in 100 days.  I started thirty nine days ago and this will be my 40th card!  My gift to you is a chance to win my BLOG CANDY click HERE for all the details!

Do you have a song in your heart today? Why not join the fun at Shopping Our Stash challenge blog 

That is it for today! I hope you are enjoying sunshine in your heart - if not your skies today.

You make me HAPPY when skies are grey! Have you ever heard the version by a porky pig impersonator?
..Oh shoot that's the wrong song.. That's BLUE CHRISTMAS..I'm such a dork!
Anyway, Yummy yellows on your card.

This was my late father's favourite song and he used to sing it to me as a child, so I always have happy memories when I hear it! I love this card, it's so light and happy..so the sentiment is so appropriate...love it! Hugs Carole Z X

Great take on the challenge! Love the bright, fun colours and little details. One of my fave songs to sing to my boys when they were small.
Thanks for taking the time to stop by my blog and say hello!

This is so pretty! I love the cheery yellows - beautiful papers you used! Love the washi tape too! I see the tails on the stars! I like how you used the sequins - I need to use mine more - I don't have any gold ones - those are gorgeous! You are doing great with your goal! Can you believe you have made 40 cards in 39 days! Awesome, my friend!
