I have been waiting for a challenge that would allow me to sing this little ditty... thanks Amy! Freshly Made Sketches #681 is just what I needed:
Sing along if you know it...
A wonderful friend from Denmark that I met in Canada brought me this darling pocket die... I'm not sure I ever found a source for it here in the US. I used my fave SU! EF to add 'denim' texture to my cardstock before cutting. The pocket has a wonderful double-top-stitch detail that I added to the seam using my old faithful EH Stitching Lines. And finally, the star of the card: that gold star! It was cut using one die from a nesting set from Ellentina Classic Collection and Scrapbookusaca.com.
This week is flying by and with the weather we've managed to get one good walk in and a few 'I didn't have to cook' meals - that's a vacation, right?

This is so darn cute! I love the sweet xoxo tab on the pocket and your fabulous texture! Glad you're enjoying your spring break! My guy is down for the count strep :(
ReplyDeleteI love so many things about this project, Michele! ♥
ReplyDeleteI love this card so much! Clever, clever you with the fallen star. Love the xoxo tab, the texture, the stitching. Now I've got the song in my head, too. I used to love staycations when I was working. We'd do all the fun things, but locally. Nothing wrong with that!
ReplyDeleteOkay there are two ditties playing! But only one fantastic card! Any night off kitchen duty is a vacation in my book. Hope you squeeze in one or two more of those! Hugs!
ReplyDeleteObviously I'm delinquent in the song area because I don't know that song, so I'm afraid I can't sing along! I can however sing praises for the card as it is CAS perfection and I love everything about it Michele!! Glad to hear you got one walk in and a couple meals out...sounds like a good vacation to me!! Enjoy this nice weekend we've got coming up too!! Hugs. :0)

ReplyDeleteSo hard to do a white on white... this is superb, Michele! You are a STAR!
ReplyDeleteIt is definitely a vacation if you don't have to cook, which means that I am always on vacation as my dear husband does the cooking in this house. I am so grateful for that - it really isn't my thing. Anyway your simple pocket card really shines. I love it xx
ReplyDeleteWhy yes, I am singing along! Who could resist with that wonderful star snagged in the pocket! Love the texture and the XOXO label, too!
ReplyDeleteYour cards is perfect Michele. Yes, I am singing along too. Love the pocket and cut XOXO tab. The gold star is perfect too.
ReplyDeleteI remember it well, Michele. And you've made it come to life with that cute little star sticking out of the pocket. I remember you talking about it when you got it and used it for the first time. So glad it was a keeper.
