Favorite Things Collection @heidiswapp @jamiepate #heidisfavoritethings

Hello friends...
had the need for some upbeat and Favorite Things kind of cards...

There is something about working with just a few items and creating up a couple of different variations.

it all sort of started with this one...
i took that bold geometric pattern...
and wrapped the pink with blue asterisks around the back, so it was still exposed on the front...
then simply layered Ephemera with notched pattern paper and some Puffy Stickers and Jumble Words...
quick fast in a hurry is what i call that.

this one came next...
a birthday card for my daughter...
the whole vibrant thing going on just fits her...
the background piece was rounded off on the edges and sanded for some distressment.
a notched piece of pattern paper was layered over that and clipped in place with seam binding dyed with Peach Color Shine along with some Ephemera pieces and more pattern paper.
then Puffy Alphas and more words plus those funky, funky flower pieces...

that one orange flower piece holds the top tag in place and embellishes the hand written sentiment underneath.
i like it!

and this one here...can we say super-duper easy?
it's pattern paper...boom!
a notched little piece folded around and stapled...boom!
round smile and fun stuff ephemera attached in place...boom!
call. it. done.
this would be a great gift tag or even a little o' embellie on a layout.
just sayin'.
