I am super excited to share with you one of my creations using the Bannerific dies. I saw THIS tutorial by Ali on how to create a hinge using brads and knew that was what I wanted to do with the round banner! I love love love how it turned out! 

I used my Neo Color II crayons to watercolor some clouds- pink hues of course, as well as the sun. This was a fairly easy technique... I did flip the design so it was a bit more tricky, but I got it to work! I used some of my FAVORITE Pink Paisley Memorandum 12x12 papers for the background- I love a great gray design.

When you pull the banner tab to the left, a super cute little sun winks at you and a sentiment is seen!

This card is perfect for the PS February HEARTS challenge- all entries have to have a heart somewhere on their project. I used one- making this an easy challenge entry:) I used the following Paper Smooches stamps/dies: Luminous Spring, Hello Sampler, Group Hugs, Fruitastic, Spectrum, Clouds dies, Bannerific dies, Tiny Hearts dies, Spectrum Icon dies. 

Be sure to stop by the PS blog for details about this blog hop and giveaway! And don't forget to leave some love along the hop:) 

That's it for me today- THANK YOU so much for stopping by! Be blessed ❤️
