I am happy to report that I am slowly shaking off my vacation is over malaise.   I sent out the cards that travelled with me on vacation.  These cards are a little late but are well travelled.  I still have some catching up to do but it is getting better.

This is one of the cards I meant to post while on vacation.  

This card uses some of my current favorite products.  You know how I love a black and white stripe so it is no surprise that the Golden Honey Specialty DSP is one of my favorites.  This DSP is a Sale-A-Bration offering and currently on backorder.  The paper is expected back in stock soon (February 17).  If I had to guess I would say this SAB choice won't be available for the duration of Sale-A-Bration, so if you love it be sure to get it soon. 

The Stitched So Sweetly dies are another favorite.  Love the scalloped edges and the stitching.  These dies are available as a bundle with the So Sentimental stamp set or you can purchase just the dies.  

The Champagne Rhinestones are so pretty.  They also are on backorder.  Apparently a lot of people liked them!  They will be back in stock at the end of March.  In the same suite of products (Parisian Blossoms Suite) is the Petal Pink Metallic Edge Ribbon.  This pretty satin ribbon has champagne metallic edges and is one of those ribbons that is soft making it easy to tie pretty bows.

Love the sentiments and font in the Honey Bee stamp set.  I do love a sentiment that uses 2 different fonts.   Let's also talk about Grace's Garden bundle.  I was very intrigued by this bundle.  I love the different images and how they coordinate with the dies.  I look forward to spending some time with it and figuring out how to use it to its full potential.  I used the florals for the panels and love that they are pretty and quick to color.  

This is the inside of the card.  Generally I use a strip of cardstock or DSP on the inside of the card.  I  like how it finishes off the card.  I also added one of the sweet little butterflies cut using the Butterfly Beauty dies and an image from Grace's Garden stamp set.

Time for me to tackle another item on my list.  Thanks for checking in and bearing with me as I get caught up!
