Hope you are having a great start to your weekend! I know that I am!

Kassidy's Month Long Birthday Bash- Echo Park Day!

Today is Echo Park Day at Inking it Up Crazy! It is part of Kassidy's Month Long Birthday Bash and today I got to make something wonderful using some beautiful Echo Park Summer Days paper. I love Echo Park paper, it is one of my absolute favorites to work with. I am always inspired to make something utterly amazing when I pull out one of their stacks!

I also just learned how to make a gate fold card (see previous post - for first gate fold card and another card using Echo Park paper) so this is my second one and I love them! I dont know why I hesitated to make them in the past.

Recipe:

E2
Simply Charmed Cricut Cartridge
Core'dinations Purple Card Stock
Misc Purple Polka Dot paper, pink, black and white card stock
Echo Park Summer Days Paper - ice cream and polka dot
Ribbon from Target
White Gel Pen


Hope you think this card is as "yummy" as I do. It makes me want to have an ice cream asap. Now if only it would get warm and stay warm here!

Also dont forget to visit Kassidy's site Inking it Up Crazy if you haven't already and leave a comment. There are some great giveaways and prizes going on, you don't want to miss them!

Gate Fold Card - Paper Smooches Monster Love





Today I made my first gate fold card and it turned out pretty awesome. I used some Echo Park paper and my new Paper Smooches stamps and voila! I love it. I am going to give the card to my husband for our anniversary next month. I cant say enough how much I love my Paper Smooches stamps, I dont usually stamp and once I got them, I just cant stop!

Recipe:

Paper Smooches Falling for You stamp and sentiment
Scalloped paper I got at a garage sale-maker unknown
Misc Blue Cardstock
Echo Park Summer Days patterned paper
White Gel Pen

I tied the card shut with some Twine from the Twinery! LOVE ME SOME TWINERY TWINE!

Hope you enjoyed the card as much as I do!

Love Holly
