Happy Anniversary With Birds 2nd card

Hello Friends!  I hope you are doing well.  It has been very nice weather in the mornings right now (60's and 70's); but temperatures are starting to climb here in Southern CA.  I think this is going to be a very hot summer.  

I have been trying to use the papers and embellishments that I have accumulated over the past 13 yrs of crafting.  I discovered a lot of gorgeous paper packs that I have never used.  How do we manage to accumulate so much stuff?  Lol!

I created this Anniversary card for one of my sisters using Stamperia New England Paper Collection that includes images on the back side of the papers.  I used the bird couple for my card. I love this gorgeous paper and wanted to create a card that showcased the paper, not just hiding in the background.  I have a lot of Stamperia papers that you will see in the future.  Lol!  I was surprised to see this was still available in some online craft stores.

Happy Anniversary Card With Birds (2nd card)

Using Stamperia New England Paper with images

Click here for my YouTube Videos. I have been creating mostly reels lately; which you can find on my Instagram account.  These are more current than my YouTube videos.

CTMH is out of business now; so my part as a CTMH consultant ended April 30, 2024.  I will continue using their products for as long as I have supplies.  They are still my favorite products and I will always have a place for them in my crafting and in my heart. 

Remember - Keep On Creating!!

  10. Very sweet card Gloria! And good for you for using up your old papers. It is amazing how much we can accumulate over the years, but it's still as good as ever. You've done a great job showcasing the patterned paper rather than just having it be in the background. Thanks so much for sharing with us over at Word Art Wednesday. We appreciate your participation! :)
