Totally you!


Is this the sweetest, girly image EVAH?!!! She's so retro! I love this layout too- I've made three cards today using it, I'll show you the others in time. I used freebie papers from Simply Cards & Papercraft OR Complete Cardmaking (not sure which). I was going to make a christmas card but looking closer at the papers I thought that they weren't particularly christmassy so I decided to make a girly card instead. I cut out the scalloped border and added it to a white polka dot embossed panel which was matted onto pink & green cardstock. I cut a rectangular panel from the 2nd paper and also matted it. The green panel was embossed with the Cutty and the image, cut from glitter card was added with foam pads. I added stripy green ribbon, a layered flower with paper rosebuds, punched hearts and the 'totally you' sentiment also cut from glitter card. I added a scalloped strip and sentiment to the inside of the card too.
Carts used:
Scalloped border- Accent Essentials (with 'fit to length' enabled)
Girl on scooter- Sweethearts
Totally you & Happy Birthday- Stamping Solutions
Thanks for looking!
