Girls Weekend!

Girls Weekend!!
Doesn't that sound fun? Summertime is the perfect time to gather up your besties and head out on an adventure!! And I have the perfect card for you to create to invite them to come along!

The colors, patterns and elements in the Sunkissed collection made it super easy to create my card.


I started with the appropriately named "Weekend Adventures" for the card base. I then trimmed a strip from the "Calendar Girl" paper and marked "x's" with a marker to indicate the weekend of fun. I adhered the calendar strip on an angle for interest. Next, I added some white alpha stickers from the Sunkissed collection and added some mini black stickers to finish the sentiment.
I just fell in love with the cluster of flowers, so I fussy cut them from the paper and adhered them to the corners of the card with foam tape.
I added pearls to the flower centers for a sweet, feminine touch.
And finally, I added the car sticker to finish the card.  Here's a tip: I like to adhere stickers to cardstock first, then fussy cut them out so that I can adhere them to my cards with foam tape for dimension. And in this case, I also outlined the sticker with a black paint pen to provided added depth/dimension to the sticker.

Thanks for stopping by today! Hope you enjoyed my 'girls weekend' card!!
