Yummy Crate Paper - Dehoarding Part I

Happy Tuesday! I am back from my submission-call-marathon! And it really was a marathon. I am not sure if I want to share the number of cards I created for this call - it would be too embarrassing to not get accepted some cards :) But I had so much fun! Just playing with all my stuff. Doing what I like best. And I realized that I love to use patterned paper for calls a lot. I have sooooo much paper, I have to start de-hoarding it! Crate Paper is having a Design Team Call at the moment and I had (hoarded) some yummy paper from them, so I quickly made these:






I love the texture of their paper! I am proud that I produced a Baby card that would fit for a boy or a girl. The bee stamp is from this cute Hero Arts set. Flowers and gems are Prima Marketing and buttons are Papertrey Ink.

I hope you are all well! Have a beautiful day and thank you for visiting!

Hugs,
Vanessa
