Oh my, how sweet this is with the vellum background, embossed clouds sweet deer and cute little bird! All three of these cards leads to one thing: trifecta win! If I were judging, this series would be the top 3 – and because they’re all so darling, I wouldn’t be able to select which is 1st, 2nd or 3rd, so I’d go with “top 3 wins, in no particular order”! Hope to see you in the winner’s circle come Monday morning!!
Off to the bike races (and it’s only 6:45 am….). Have a fantastic day – looking forward to see what you’ll dazzle us with next!

You are so encouraging and lovely, C, thank you so much! I don’t think I will make the winners circle this week but I’ll keep trying. These challenges really do help you to expand your skill set! Hope you have had a great day at the races. 🙂
I’m behind. Again! Sorry about that. Guess what I got in the mail??!! Yep, the most darling card ever. Thank you so much! Can’t wait to show my granddaughter, Lily. She’ll want to make something like it, I just know. Can you come for a holiday?! Now, your cards…I’ve looked at all three of these and love them all. If you ask me my favorite parts, it would take forever to list them, but … I love the little hearts on the sentiments, I adore the vellum clouds, and your different skies. Naturally, you’ve rocked the coloring again; that’s just a given! I think you’ll win PS. Never give up. I’m off to comment on your other card too. xx Bev
It’s so easy to get behind, isn’t it? I’m the same! Oh yay! I am so glad it finally arrived. I was a little late in posting it too which didn’t help. I’m glad you liked it, Bev. 🙂 I’d LOVE to come for a holiday. How fun! Thank you again for your lovely compliments. They mean so much to me. Hope you have a great day! 🙂
OHHHHHHH! I love that sky for this card– fun design and great use of that cloud outline!!! You’ve nailed this sketch– fab job! Thanks so much for joining in the fun with the Paper Smooches SPARKS team!!! Hope you will play along this week for the Picture Perfect challenge:) I apologize for not leaving a comment sooner– time flies!
