Avery Elle mini note cards

Good Morning!

I have a cute set of mini note cards to share with you today.

I made them using Avery Elle's mini set, Ikat Additions.

And Roll With It for the sentiments.

This set is fabulous!

And it coordinates so well with the Ikat set!

So many possibilities!!

Thanks so much for stopping by.

Just a heads up, the new release blog hop will be happening Aug 8th, so be sure to check out the Avery Elle blog for more details. :)

RetroSketch #68

Happy Saturday!!

I hope everyone is having a great weekend so far.

We have had so much rain recently, That we thought we would try and get out for a picnic. We have a local (man-made) lake nearby and thought we would head over there.

We were there only about 15 min and this is what happened!!

went from blue sky to that!!

Although, nothing compared to all those terrible storms in the US.

On to the new Retrosketch.

This one is based on one of our June headliner Erin's cards, that you can see here.

I loved the patterned paper and the sideways sentiment.

I used some fabulous Deena Rutter paper, Pura Vida.

As well as a sentiment and flower from the TAWS set Tropical Hideaway.

I just love that flower, and the rest of the tropical images in that set.

Be sure to pop over to the RetroSketches blog to check out Erin's re-take and the rest of the DT's inspiration!

Thanks so much for stopping by.

Have a fabulous weekend!
