To start my card I pulled out the Gorgeous Picture My Life™ Cards—Feels Like Home and played with them for awhile. SO So so many options for great cards with these pre-printed cards. 

"These are Double-sided pocket cards featuring unique designs, sentiments, and icons". Not all designs shown in above photo. 12 – 4" × 6" pocket cards and 2 – 3" × 4" pocket cards. Lots of these cards have different colours or patterns on the reverse side of them. So many options. This means I will need to get 2 packs of these cards to get all the patterns. On the green floral that I put on my card under the picture my life card "you feel like home to me", the other side is the pink leaves as shown in th ebottom left hand side of the photo (the bit left over. I cut down the 3x4 card to 3x3.75 to fit sideways on the 4x6 green card. After backing the white on Green I used 3D foam tape to raise them up on the striped PML card (This I also cut down from 4x6 to 4x5.25). I stuck the Blue Burlap Ribbon (which is on special at the moment) on with Glue Dots® Mini Dots and then finished it off with Grey Gems.

My photo is a little creamy looking as taken in artificial lighting.

Workshops Your Way® Choose to Shine Cardmaking Kit 

A kit that is available also in this So Much Happy theme, called Workshops Your Way® Choose to Shine Cardmaking Kit, with this exclusive B sized stamp set. I Loved this sentiment "Just a note to brighten your day and chase the clouds away". Its such a perfect sentiment for someone that's sad, unwell or dealing with stressful situations or just because.  

I made this card using below using that sentiment with the yellow paper backing. Sapphire Cardstock cut with the Thin Cuts—Decorative Borders "cloud" which coordinates the stamp set really well. A strip of the coloured flowers at the bottom finished off the paper. I edged all but the yellow paper with black ink. 

Stamping was Clover ink for the stems of the flowers. Peach ink for the flowers, Candy Apple for the hearts and centres of the flowers, completed this card off.

My card was made using the yellow lines from the

I Heart Us Paper Packet

Then I got a white part over the top and stamped on it with Black Ink and an old Alphabet stamp set. with YOU cut from the Thin Cuts—Block Alphabet  with paper from the Something Fierce Paper & Cardstock Bundle (limited time bundled together). Then I hand wrote the words "to know" with Marvy® Uchida® LePen™ Journaling Pen. 

I hand cut out the pot with black card stock and some yellow strip scraps for the pile of gold and the opening of the pot. Then i stamped on them in yellow ink with the inside of the flower from the I Heart Us—Cardmaking stamp set (pictured below) to make it look like coins. This card is perfect thank you to give to a friend or person you know so that you can show them how much you care.
