Now, time to share some inspiration of my own with you!

First up, I want to shine the product spotlight on something more decorative than crafty & it's totally winning my heart; the new Choose Happiness Decal Set!


Oh hello, 2021! I'm ready for you!
What a terrific way to personalize your planner & phone!


So pretty, and these sentiments really resonate with me!
And the best part?
The Choose Happiness Decal Set is completely resealable!
You can pull these stickers off, and re-use them again and again! Love it!

My second share for today is a super pretty mixed media page,

"Always Beautiful Moments"



Oh how beautiful, indeed!


You can see why it's called the Enchanted Roses Stamp Set! Such a magical stamp! Let's take a closer look...


Swoon! SO pretty!
It's a lovely stamp for cardmaking, but it's amazing for scrapbooking too!
I inked mine in Permanent Black Crisp Ink and then messily painted and splattered my enchanting roses with blues & purples from the Watercolors 36 Pan Set.


Those roses are so beautifully detailed!


I completed my layout with papers, washi tape and chipboard alphas from the Enjoy The Ride Scrapbook Collection, and scattered a few of the Shades of Purple Enamel Dots. Simple. Beautiful. Enchanting!


My last project for today is this light, fresh and contemporary scrapbook page,

"Loved"


Oh so pretty!!!


It may be called the Vintage Garden Stamp but don't let the name fool you! It's suitable for both classic and elegant projects, as well as fresh & contemporary ones like mine!


Such a pretty & versatile stamp set! I hand colored my vintage blooms with some gel pens from my stash, and I just love the result! To save my fingers from laborious fussy cutting, I used the coordinating Die Set to do all the hard work for me - bliss!


I also stamped falling leaves directly onto my Enjoy The Ride Scrapbook Collection paper base, and that beautiful sentiment too!


Simply Stunning!!!

I hope my projects have inspired you!
