It’s another wonderful day to share an awesome handmade card by Sarita Simmonett of Little Princess Cards. Sarita has a way of taking what seems to be the ordinary and turning it into a glorious creation. We just love how she used the Gradation Cover-a-Card background stamp of Impression Obsession for a Valentine card. Her creativity and vision to see a beautiful Valentine card is amazing!

Take a look at her amazing card and enjoy learning more about her too.

Adorable Bear & Things Card

Posted on by Shauna Todd

Hi there,

I thought I would take a very short pause from the holiday cards and share a card of an adorable bear to celebrate the birth of a brand new little bundle of joy that came into our family.  Our niece gave birth on Halloween – woo-ee.  She must love having babies on holidays. Her son was born on Valentine’s Day a few years back.  Now little Jolene Priscilla has entered the world.  What a sweet occasion!

I was tempted to do the card in Halloween colors but having daughters myself, I couldn’t resist the soft and beautiful pinks of little new ones…so pink it was.
