Paper Sweeties July Release Party!

 
Hi there!
 
Welcome to the July Release Party for Paper Sweeties!  Today, is the day to buy those *new* summer stamps!  I had lots of fun making this happy summer card!  Isn't the bee, butterfly, and ladybug so cute?!  On my project for today, I used the *new* stamp set Bee Happy!
 
For my card, I started with a white card base and paired it with green paper and an embossed yellow/green panel.  The bee, leaves, butterfly, and ladybug were die cut using Sweet Cuts-Bee Happy. The fence was die cut using Sweet Cuts-Home Tweet Home.  The small flowers were stamped using the stamp set Tree of Life add-on spring and coordinating dies, which are Sweet Cuts-Tree of Life-add-on:spring.  For the final touch, straw(green apple) and bakers twine(cookie dough).
 
Please follow along with the list below for more awesome inspiration from my teammates!

  14. Maria, this is gorgeous! This is one of the brightest cards I've ever seen.. it is a true burst of sunshine. :o) I love the embossed background and all of those beautiful stamps! :o) The straw and twine are beautiful and whimsical, just like summer. Wonderfully done as always, my dear friend! I apologize for the delay.. it was a nightmare of a week within my family, but thankfully tragedy was narrowly avoided. Thank you for always being so patient with me... so many things like this keep popping up this year. :( Your cards always make me happy, for which I am thankful. :o)

    Hugs and blessings,
    Karen
