OSAT August Blog Hop - New Beginnings

Good Morning, Stampers!

I'm so glad you could join us for the August One Stamp

at a Time Blog Hop today! The theme is New Beginnings

and I think we all can agree that we could use some new

beginnings these days! 

How about babies??!! I'm really limited on

baby supplies, so I try to use what I have and make

it work. Hearts are not just for Valentine's Day or weddings.

Love is expressed all year long for different occasions, so why

not incorporate them into your projects, right?  The Playful

Alphabet dies are the perfect little size for personalizing

just about any papercraft project, too!

I started with a light watercolor wash and then added

a few speckles and embossing before adhering the card front.

I used the same idea on these little pennants.

These banners are the perfect way to dress up

a tasty dessert, don't you think?
