Charley Card

Charley - 6 Pieces

Another card from 52/52, this one is from Sketch #26. I wasn't sure I would like the card once I got the card sketched out. It seemed like the two little rounded rectangles would be too small, but I now think it turned out super cute.

Used: 6 patterns of the "Prudence" line from Crate Paper

Slade Card

Slade - 5 Pieces

Here's my latest card, I put it together last night. I got the sketch from 52 Sketches . . . 52 Weeks (see the link to the side). I loved the use of rounded and square corners, the circle and the rectangle in the middle. It's so contradictory that it works and is so fun.

What A Difference The Papers Make

Hale - Feminie Papers - 5 Pieces

Hale - Masculine Papers - 5 Pieces

Personally I like the masculine papers better with this layout, but that's just me. I just love to see how different papers make the same layout look so different. Don't give up on a card or a page just because you don't like the papers. Just try different papers and you could end up with a something you love!

Backing Up A Bit

Sadie - 6 Pieces

Ok, I forgot how much I wanted to post this picture. I love the layout and the papers! It's definitely one of my most favorite cards. It is such a fun and bright line of papers it's hard not to smile just looking at them! Which makes this card even harder to take my eyes off of!
