If you haven't seen the video yet, you can check it out here. Erin Lincoln shows how to make a Go-To Sentiment card by taking one type of sentiment from different sets in your stash and making a collage-y focal point. BTW, it's great to see another stamper in action. I picked up a couple of helpful tips and seeing her Cuttlebug plates just as scratched up as mine made me feel SOOO much better. I was kinda-sorta ashamed of how beat up mine were but now I will use them with pride cuz' they look just like Erin's! Thank you Erin for keeping it real.
I just love her.
Lots.
Ok back to my card. I decided to go with a birthday theme cuz' you can never have too many of those in your card stash. Cardstock is Simply Chartreuse and the patterned paper is from Basic Gray Olivia. The sentiments are from 6 different sets! In case you want to know which sets, they are noted in the supply list at the end of this post.
Thank you everyone for stopping by. Keep your fingers crossed that I win the grand prize. Of course, if you've already entered a card into the challenge, it's okay if you cross your fingers for yourself. ;o)

Excellent card. Love the use of a round mat for the sentiments. And like the sentiment curved along the edge of the circle.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card! Love it when you post! You always come up with great eye candy.
ReplyDeleteNadine, I love that you stamped your sentiments on a circular panel. It gives it a whole different look. Great sentiments that you chose for this card.
ReplyDeleteWow, someone's been busy with their blog.....I love it. And the card is great too.
ReplyDeleteFab card. I think that cheeky curved sentiment is the best. All your sentiments and how they are layed out are awesome. I love Olivia papers. Find it hard to cut into it. So glad you did as this card looks very special.
ReplyDeleteNadine......This is so, so pretty! I just love that simply chartreuse with the pink (or melon...can't tell on my computer) and the dark chocolate. What a winning combination!
ReplyDeleteOoohh! I love that you did the sentiments on a circle! Something out of the ordinary! Great job!
ReplyDeleteLove the circle and the pretty colors.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous Nadine!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card Nadine! Nothing like PTI anniversary celebrations to get you crafting and posting again. Okay, greed works too. LOL! I really love the color combo on your card.
ReplyDeleteLOVE this Nadine!!! Btw, I haven't forgotten about sending your Kraft envies, I'll get them to you soon ;)
ReplyDeleteVery pretty, Nadine! I like how the sentiments are arranged on the diecut and Iove the PP background too.
ReplyDeleteNadine, love your colors and the multiple sentiments within the circle. Great submission for the Go To Sentiments challenge.
