Happy Belated Valentine's Day! Did everyone have a special day? We usually keep it low key and avoid all chain restaurants at ALL costs on February 14th. We ended up at a trendy little restaurant here in Phoenix called the Cornish Pasty. They serve traditional Cornwall (Southwest England) pasties and they are delicious. My favorite part of dinner....Banoffee Pie. Have you ever had it? If not, you must! It sounds soooo simple, but it is soooo delicious! It's a delightful combination of a graham cracker crust, homemade caramel, fresh whipped cream and bananas. Honestly, heaven on a plate! Gonna have to try it at home.
Now that I've gotten you all excited about this sweet goodness, I hope you get equally as excited about this card. It was inspired by a card I saw on Pinterest. I loved the rounded edges.
I needed a fabulous paper to kick this card off. I chose this print from the Candlelight Christmas DSP. The original card used actual lace for the horizontal border, but I chose to use my Eyelet Border Punch. For a pop of color, I added in the Bashful Blue Satin Ribbon. Love how it all came together!
My must-have item on this card is the stamp set. It's called Petite Pairs (122495/122497). I had never noticed this set until Kristen Driessen used it on her blog at ZoKris. I fell in love. The sentiments come in pairs (Sending a Kiss / To Make it Better, Sending Sympathy and Prayers / To Heal your Heart). There's one for Christmas, Birthday, Baby, Thanks and a couple more. It's a versatile set that will get a lot of use.
If you'd like to add this or any other products to your personal collection, send me an email or order online by clicking the Order Online button in the top right-hand corner. Thanks so much for stopping by!
