Here’s my Day 2 card – I decided to combine both into one post…

I found this *adorable* FREE! digi paper pack at Shery K Designs – http://www.sherykdesigns-blog.com/2011/06/free.html
and had to make a card with it! My only thing – I forgot to load cardstock in my printer so it was printed on cheap printer paper (but still looks good)
I printed 2 sheets; trimmed to be an A2 card. The flowers are stampin up and the pearl is froom my stash. I thought I had a ladybug sticker but since I couldn’t find it I cut out a ladybug and pop dotted it onto the flower. I stamped with a stampin up stamp… Thinking of the long journeys a ladybug makes; that’s inspiring!

Day 1 card (in case you missed it)
My card is one that I made at stamp camp this year (true confession, not my own unique design). I really like the combination of colors/style; and it was hanging on my wall and I needed a card for a co-worker and thought I would use it for the hop.. will have a new creation on Sunday!

All products are stampin up!
