Card Patterns Cards

Thank you all for your kind comments about my freebie giveaway on Friday. They encourage me to keep offering freebies. I am glad I could give something to you that you can use. I so appreciate your visits.

We've had a busy week with some friends visiting from America. Sadly, we have to say goodbye to them today. It was such a wonderful time of catching up, serving our small community here together and just spending time together. One of the best parts of hosting teams is that we get to witness others loving on our girls. That just touches my heart as a mom. And our friends totally doted on our kids. What a blessing! And God is good to bring them to our lives.

Today's cards are for Card Patterns sketch Challenge. Our sponsor for Sketch 110 is SRM Stickers. It's no secret how much I love my stickers. I am so glad to be designing for them. Many of you are probably like I was, never thought of using stickers on my cards and considered them staples ONLY for scrapbookers. I was so wrong...SRM converted me :-).

This card uses the SRM WGYS Plus Cupcake and some Pink Paislee Soiree papers. The ribbon is from the Michael's dollar bin.

The colors on my second card follow the muted version of this week's Play Date Cafe's PDCC76.All products are Stampin' Up! except for the sentiment, which is from Layers of Color's Sent With Love, and the round doily (Spellbinders Floral Doily Accents dies).

Have a great week! I hope you can join us at Card Patterns!
