Wishing you sunny days and High Hopes stamps!!

This card was created for the High Hopes Guest Designer challenge ( I know I am busy, but shhhh, I will FIND the time if they call on me). lol

I used this Time Well Spent image sent to me by my dear friend, Lena, cut out and embossed with my curved rectangles nestabilities, then layered on shades of blue cs (bordering blue, brilliant blue, and bashful blue). The DP is from Australia from my dear friend, Marcia, and the ribbon behind is from my stash. The cute little green charm is shrink plastic stamped with the fish from the retired SU Angler set, then colored green from behind to make it show up more.
Lastly, just had to show you the last card I made before Valentine's Day. This sweet little Tilda with Tag was beggin' to be colored and used with my new bouquet of roses stamp (from Summer at Roses on Paper). She has lots of stamps that work great with our Magnolias. Check out her store and let her know Kelly from KL Stampin N Scrappin sent ya.

Hope everyone has a TERRIFIC Valentine's Day!! :)
Hugs,

Oh so cute! I love how you cute out the cute little boy with the nestie. And the fish...so cute. I never think of adding shrink plastic to my cards ... have a ton of it, just never think of it! Maybe I'll put it out on my table since you've inspired me :-) Good luck for the Guest designer spot. My fingers are crossed for you!!

Both of these paper pretties are positively precious!!!! I love the High Hopes fisherman:o) Reminds me of when my boys enjoyed this relaxing activity...they are enjoying the fast-paced life too much right now to appreciate sitting on a pier waiting for the fish to bite.

I also love the adorable Tilda with tag!!! You colored her and the beautiful bouquet wonderfully, and I love all the design elements. Too, too sweet!!!

Hugs!
