Hi crafty friends....Happy humpday! How are you this week? I'm having a good week and we are having beautiful weather where I live - so grateful right now to live someplace warm. Good wishes going out to all of my East Coast friends right now. Today I'm sharing a card for the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge Blog! The theme last week was "Hearts" but I never quite got my stuff together to get a card made for that one... Well, this week the theme is 'Anything Goes' and I decided to make a heart/love card! Everything in my craft room right now is all about hearts and red and pink and cute stuff for Valentine's Day! My card is made using fun stamps and dies from Mama Elephant! LOVE.
Here is my card - a fun love note or just a general cheer up greeting! How adorable is that red bus?? Yikes, I love these stamps. I added some clouds made with tiny heart printed paper from Lawn Fawn.
Be sure to click over to the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge Blog to enter your own card this week...and to check out the other awesome entries!
There are matching dies for the bus, the flags and the wheels on the bus! ACK. I raised the flags and the bus with foam squares to pop off the page a little bit. At the last minute I added some tiny hot air balloons in the sky!
This pretty cloud die is also from Mama Elephant and I stamped my seniment right on the patterned paper.
I think this is such a nice saying...Wherever you go...
One last view from the side. The card layers are made with the Femme Frames dies from Mama Elephant. Full supply links below.
Remember....
Thanks for popping in to see me today! I'll be in the craft room all weekend this coming weekend! The hubs bought me the DVD's for Season 5 (the current season) of Downton Abbey and I intend to watch the entire thing!! Also, I have been blessed with some really neat guest designer opportunities next month and I need to work on my projects. Can't wait! Hope you have a wonderful day. XOXO

Hi Sistah!!! It's ridiculous how cute this card is! Nice touch on the last minute hot air balloon add-in! It's what I first noticed! You also used one of my favorite color combos of red and aqua with hearts! Such an adorable card!

Your cards always make me SO happy, my friend! This is so, so, so adorable! Love the little scene you created here. The bus and bridge and hot air balloons are so cute, and I really love the heart-print clouds you added. Just pure happiness! Looking forward to seeing what you've got up your sleeves for guest designer spots! Happy weekend!

What a wonderful card. Such crisp colors. Right now my heart would like to go on a nap. I'm gonna tell the boss I should listen to my heart. I'm sure he won't mind.
