My Time Made *QUICK* Easy *& SENTIMENTAL*

So, who caught that play on words in my title??  I think I'm so clever sometimes :]  LOL

If you stopped by yesterday and saw my note about swapping days with Pam, thank you for returning today to check out my project!  HUGE thanks again to sweet Pam for the last minute swap.  Thank God she's so organized :]  Hope you checked out her beautiful project using some of the purple patterned paper and the Bouncing Baby Buggy-turned-basket!  It is GORGEOUS!!!  Love the handle she added with the ruffled ribbon.  I may have to buy her project and send it to my mother.  Purple is her favorite color, don't ya know?

Today I wanted to be a non-conformist (which is SO me) and create a group of cards instead of a template.  The cards I made showcase four different patterned papers from not only this release but last month's also, the new Fanciful Flourishes and So Sentimental stamps.  Look how EASY you can whip up some stunning, thoughtful cards with the versatile, coordinating My Time Made Easy products!!  Does it get any better?  Seriously, how often do you search for just the right patterned paper or any pattern just as long as it's the right color, to go with the stamp set you selected for your project?  I used to drive myself nuts looking for just the right paper, but now that I have all of these coordinating digi paper packs, I simply select the pages I want to use, print them (whole page or a portion...any scale you want!) and away I go with my project!  Super easy and much less storage than those huge paper packs!  

How about some close ups of my cute cards?  I just LOVE the contrast of the Pretty Impressions paper with Kraft.  So fresh and fun!  
Couture Cardstock Day At Sea and Sweet Heart

Couture Cardstock Nomad and Thistle Stalk

What the heck, here's a close up of each card!  Don't want you to lose any of the simple details ;]
There you have it...proof positive that My Time Made Easy is not exclusive to templates, our products cater to the card maker as well!!  It's just so hard NOT to use one of Lauren's EASY templates to house goodies...especially cards!  How perfect would the Card Catch All be for this set?  OH, and a GREAT gift for a friend!!  People LOVE receiving blank, handmade cards that they can give to others.  Hmm...I have a wonderful friend who IS that person.  That Card Catch All just might be next...after my JUGS project tomorrow that is ;]
Please be sure to swing by Lauren's blog if you haven't already and check out the rest of the team (left sidebar <---) . They have been putting out some AWESOME projects!!!  Sure to inspire you.

Thanks so much for stopping by.  I'll be back tomorrow :)  Have a FANTASTIC Friday!!

ey girly these are fun and fresh and fantastic. I must learn to overcome my dealings with bows - I feel "all thumbs" sometimes but these with the touch of ribbon are so sweet. Thanks for your sweet words about our switch but hey - that's what friends are for. Glad to help out. *xo

Awesome cards, KRISTIN! The papers are all fabulous, but I think the orange is my fave! :)
