A short time ago, I saw a card on Heartwarmers by Vicki that inspired me to make a couple of cards. I simply guessed at the measurements to use, and I think they turned out to be quite nice cards.

This design enabled me to use up a scrap of the striped DSP. I think it was 3" wide, and the navy blue mat under it was 3 1/4" wide. I made each matted piece just long enough to fit under the diagonal strip.

The flower is a vellum-like sticker that has some metallic gold highlights. The colors in it went perfectly with the DSP and navy card base.

The sticker is rather delicate, so I applied it to some white cardstock first and then die-cut the circle. This worked really well because it helped to embed the image into the white paper.

Each circle was then popped up on foam squares.

I made the diagonal strip of navy blue CS 1" wide, and the white mat under it is 1 1/4" wide.

I used Night of Navy ink to stamp the sentiments on the front and inside.

I have a lot of the floral stickers in different colors, so I think I'll be making more cards like this to donate to the thrift store and to have in my own stash of cards.

Our new sofa and one of our new end tables has been delivered. The second end table should arrive today. New furniture is so much fun!

Thanks so much for stopping by, and remember to laugh--a little or a lot--every day.
