Summer Lovin'

Supplies:  Whiff of Joy - Sweet Cake stamp, pp - Let's Fly Away paper 
stack free with Quick Cards, copics - C3 Y11 Y38 Y00 0 Y15 YG11, 
Touch marker RP7, yellow vellum - Papermania, buttons from stash, 
Mini alpha stickers - Kaisercraft, pop dots, embroidery floss, 
machine stitching and tombow roller adhesive.

This week's challenge on Paperplay is "Summer Lovin'" (Summer/or make a card for a couple).  I decided to pair this fun cake image by Whiff of Joy with a mini alpha "Congrats" sentiment.  The perfect card for a summer wedding.
Lots of machine stitching (and hand stitched the buttons)
Love the banners and dots on the patterned paper - it was a free stack from Quick Cards magazine a few months ago - which I won on Jane Millard's blog (thanks again Jane).

Thanks so much for stopping by - hope you have a great week.
