Happy Hump Day all!! Well, I am still at my mom's and sister's and having fun although it has rained the whole time I have been here! It is supposed to be in the 70s this weekend though and I am looking forward to that since my sister and I are going to the San Diego zoo for the day - can't wait, I love the zoo! So, I made this card before I left and uploaded it to blogger so I could share it today. It is a square card, one of my favorite kind of card to make and it has been awhile!! I also played around with my new Scalloped Trim border punch (FREE in the Sale-A-Bration catty with a $50 order which can be placed with me here) and came up with these cool nested squares....here I was all proud of myself and then I see that several gals have already figured this trick out, LOL!!! But, I still love how they came out! And, the images and the sentiment are from another new set called With All My Heart, which can be found in the Occasions Mini. I love this set, the flowers are so pretty! I added some dazzling diamonds to my image with liquid glue (click on image to see close-up) as well as a pretty Filigree brad and love how it sparkles! And, I added some little rhinestones to the centers of the flowers - you can find these in the Eggcellent Eggs kit also in the Occasions Mini. So, I will leave you with the recipe and then it is off to do some fun shopping which I always enjoy*wink* Have a fabulous day and thanks for stopping by, it always makes me smile:-)Card Recipe:
