Celebrate today and always card made using the NEW something to Celebrate cartridge!

Hello, friends!

This card is made using the NEW Something to Celebrate cartridge.  At first I found this cartridge a wee bit on the cutesy side, but then after studying it and thinking about what to do I realized that it didn't have to be. You can make things that look cutesy into elegant things with the right paper and mind set. Well, using your cuttlebug to add some texture doesn't hurt either *wink*

I used American Crafts paper and Papertrey Ink ribbon.
I cut these lovebirds out at 2 1/4".
The stamp is also from Papertrey Ink.
Thanks so much for stopping by today! I will catch you all back here tomorrow with yet another project!

PEACE, LOVE, AND CRAFTS!

Think it has just the right amount of cute. Has a touch of Pennsylvania Dutch style to me.

It's great how you think "outside" the box, to use something "cutesy" and dress it up to give a different feel. Thanks for the reminder to do that.

I don't think that it is overly cutesy. I thi its just the right amount, this is a very cute card. I love the colors you chose to put it together. I especially love the embossing.
