Happiness Always...another new set!

Happy Tuesday! I have several more cards made, but realized they're made in Red Riding Hood...and all the new stuff I keep showing lately is predominately red! yikes! So I thought I better show this little card that's made out of Baja Breeze. It's such a beautiful color, kind of a darker Soft Sky.

This card started out as the background for a Sock Monkey card, but it just didn't quite work out. At the last minute, I saw this glitter heart laying on my desk, which was left over from this card (it and several other cards in my card basket met an unfortunate accident with the dog and dh's cup of coffee one day, enough said.) I like the way it turned out, kind of shabby chic like, even though it doesn't have much stamping on it.

And it reminds me...dh and I need to put up my new "happiness" vinyl wall decor from the new Decor Elements line by Stampin' Up! I kind of got the "eye roll" from dh when I told him about it, but I'm sure he'll come around! lol! It'll be in my stamp room...we're testing the waters there first!

Hope you have a great Tuesday! Thanks for stopping by! Have you stamped something today?

i'm the first one to vote! i'm the first one to vote! I just think it is a very nice thing that you put the recipe down in case anyone ever wants to duplicate the card but I don't [not because it's not cute...but because I'm lazy]....LOOOOVE the card by the way. Glitter makes anything sparkle. heheh...

Oh cute!!! I love the heart and glitters! First and last time I used glitters, it was a disaster. I had glitters everywhere for days :)

Today, I haven't stamped anything. Yesterday, yuppers :)
