Happy Travels

Did you notice that the Glitz Design blog has a new look?  I was so excited the morning that I clicked on it to make sure that the day's post looked fine....and it was totally transformed!!  Loving it!  

Anways...moving on to my card for today {which, by the way, features the brand new Pretty In Pink collection}!  This is my card for CPS Sketch #252, where we were sponsored by Taylored Expressions this week.  Taylor is giving away a free stamp set of choice to one lucky participant this week, so hopefully you will have some time to create a fun card and link it up!  Here is what I created: 

  "Filled with Love" supplies:
Cardstock: Papertrey Ink (vintage cream) 

Paper/Stickers/Transparency: Glitz Design (Pretty In Pink collection: Stripe)

Instructions:  Make card from cream cardstock.  Cut sheet music paper layer slightly smaller, round the corners and distress ink the edges.  Cut a block of striped paper, round the corners and distress ink the edges.  Adhere the strip block to the middle of the sheet music paper layer, then wrap cream satin ribbon around the middle.  Adhere the entire block to the card front.  Layer a transparent frame, cardstock sticker and clear sticker to the middle of the card.  Stamp the wreath to cream cardstock, diecut and then color in with pencils.  Adhere the wreath to the middle, then accent with a twine double bow and paper flowers.  Cut a banner edge to a cream cardstock strip and distress ink the edges.  Stamp the sentiment to it, then adhere it to the bottom right corner of the card.  Add a strip of striped paper to the bottom of the sentiment banner, then accent with pearls.  Add pearls to the transparent frame to finish.
