Here's my contribution to the bloghop....




“Hello Friend” card

Notes: The inspiration for this card came from the sequins from Pretty Pink Posh. I even used the color scheme from the pack to pick the inks that I would use for the butterflies. I also love how Glue Dots® makes it easy for me to add little items like the shaker pouch and the letters on my card without any mess.

  9. I love your card and am fascinated with the Glue Dots. I was not familiar with this brand prior to this hop but.... How cool are these products! Glue Dots for sequins, yes I'm a happy camper right now lol. I also like the way you made the pouch for your shaker, I am definitely switching to your way instead of the foam tape way I've been doing. THANK YOU for sharing your card and all the inspiration. I'm so glad to find your blog and YouTube! (mardy14@bellsouth.net)
