Someone I know is moving so I made her and her son, who happens to be a friend of my son's, a little pineapple card. Pineapples are a sign of welcoming, warmth and friendliness...so this is where I grabbed my inspiration.
Using the My World cricut cartridge, I cut a pineapple for the cover of my card and a smaller one for the inside (no photo, sorry!). I used stamps and stencils from STAMPlorations, bold sentiments: Journey and mixed media grunge and stencil confetti circles.
I'll be entering this card into the following challenges:
STAMPlorations August Theme and Sketch
Bitten by the Bug 2 - The Fruits of Summer
Cut It Up: Old School - the paper I used for the circles is at least 5 years old!
Scrapping4Fun - #49 using name brand paper - I used K & company and DCWV
Thanks for stopping by and for your kind comments!
