SMILE, is a picture perfect card

using the fab card kit for the month of august from 

artful delight,

plus a short video (below) showing you the contents of this card kit.

Picture Perfect

4" x 5"

-(all paper and embellishments used on my card are from the kit)-

from the pier collection (crate paper) i used the "poolside" patterned paper and pinwheel. the "picture perfect" flair badge and the decorative bag  are from the "memories captured" collection from fancy pants.

for the beige border (made using a fiskars punch) i used the other side of the "poolside" paper. 

the so super cute "film strip" is a washi tape from queen & co and the sentiment is one of the "chalkboard stickers" from pebbles "lake side" collection.

i also added my so loved sewing touch to the card.

this is what i am thinking of when i look at this card:

"a summer vacation"

(the poolside paper reminds me of the ocean, the border reminds me of the sand, the film strip of all the pictures taken at the beach, the pinwheel swirling with the ocean breeze, the bag holding the pretty sea shells and the "smile" sticker is for my big imagination here, lol).

i had a blast making this fun card.

this is a pic of the kit

WILD CARD WITH LISA/PINWHEEL

I made this card twice because I did not like the base card color I used. 

It looked too plain, like something was missing. The color I was using was a 

dark blue from MS cardstock. 

This card is the Pinwheel,  the 20th Card in the booklet from page #51.

My Pinwheel Card

6 inches

 

  

The three photos below will show the different options the spinner has. You can see the butterfly in the photos above, so actually it has four options. The butterfly stamp is from a Hannah Montana set I got at M's for a dollar something on Clearance a while ago, and the phrases are from some other stamp set that came with a ticket shape stamp. I can't remember the brand.

 

These last photos show the inside and part of the envelope.

 

Hope you like it, I worked very hard on this one plus the card is really fun. 

I liked the idea of the spinner.

Now...onto 

Lisa's Pinwheel Card

A completely different look.

Enjoy and come back for another episode of Wild Card with Lisa.

In the meantime, I am going to Lisa's BLOG to find out about the 

elegant patterned paper she used on this card.
