Good morning. I got my Papertrey Ink brand new December release in the mail yesterday and of course, I had to ink up a set. I love their release this month and can't wait to be able to make a lot of fun cards and gifts from it! Today I'd like to share with you a card that I made for Valentine's Day. I'm very pleased with how it turned out and did up the inside, envelope, and even lined the inside of my envelope with designer paper. This is something that I need to start doing more often. I have an awesome organization post coming up for you on a new storage method that I've found for all of my die-cuts because they were a little all over the place and in order to me to fully utilize what I have, I'm one of those who have to stay organized so I know what I have to use it.

I hope you enjoy this card and that it provides you with some inspiration. I pray you have a very Spirit-filled day. Today's Treasure: Ephesians 4:3-6.

  3. Very cute!  Love the colors on this one and you always have such creative accessories too!  I have nominated you for the stylish blogger award…check out the dets on my blog.  Merry Christmas!

  5. I really like the colors and that sheet music paper!  The sequin was also a great touch.

    And I'm excited to see your article on organizing!  I'm struggling because it works best for me to see my supplies and I just don't have space to keep them all in front of me.
