Hello lovelies! I'm getting back into the swing of things after vacation. Our son planned a family trip to resort in Mexico! The days were filled with sunshine, snorkeling, lounging in the pool for hours on end, a variety of entertainment shows, smiles, laughter and endless amounts of food! There was a little boy at poolside lunch one day, maybe 3 years old, who wanted to give Sweet P a flower! He was too shy to do it, so his dad gave it to her for him.
You came here for a card though, so I better get to it! Elizabeth is hosting CAS week for us at Just Us Girls. We're also saying farewell to this month's guest designer. Thanks for joining us, TK, we loved having you!
My sweet friend, Michele sent me a few Pinkfresh Washi die cuts to play with and they were just what I needed for my quick CAS card. I did a little stenciling in the background then layered them on with a Poppystamps foiled sentiment. Those bright blooms, die cuts and CAS work for this week's Tic Tac Toe challenge!
I hope I've inspired you to play along this week!

Sounds like a wonderful trip! Especially for Sweet P and her charming little "boyfriend'! LOVE your card! Your light yellow pattern is perfect behind the lovely flowers and sentiment.
Gorgeous card with those Washi tape flowers. They look perfect over the stenciled background. Love the font in the sentiment.
Also meant to say I love the photo of "Sweet P" with the flower in her hair.
Very sweet! I love how the washi does the heavy lifting, but your background stenciling and foiled sentiment worked just as hard. So glad you had a fun time in Mexico. Sweet "P" is growing up!!
Lisa... sounds like a fabulous vacation!! Your granddaughter is just beautiful...as is your card! Love adding the simple stenciled background to the die cut washi.
That beautiful flower was meant for Sweet P in her shirt of the same color! How sweet!
Those die-cut washi flowers seemed to be meant for this very card, Lisa! I'm loving the subtle stenciling in yellow that draws out the yellow in the flower clusters - well done you!

Such a pretty scene Lisa. The "here and there" ink blended background is perfect for those florals to sit in front of and your sentiment is the perfect size. Great card!!!
Glad your vacation was enjoyable. Cute story and photo of the flower 😊. Fun card. Aren’t stamping friends the best!
Your trip sounds awesome! Loved the story about the flower. It is a bit hard to get back to reality after vacation, however, no mojo was lost as this card is lovely! You know I love stenciled backgrounds.
Sounds like a relaxing and fun time was had. Your card is lovely and shows off those lovely diecuts so nicely.
Welcome home! Sounds like a fabulous trip. Beautiful card.
The stenciled background and pretty washi die cuts go so perfectly with this foiled sentiment!
Lisa, your vacation sounds absolutely fabulous and I loved the story about your sweet granddaughter's young admirer! I also love your gorgeous card with the perfect stenciling behind those lovely washi die cuts. It's always special to receive a gift from a crafty friend and you put Michele's to good use. Beautiful card!
Sounds like an amazing vacation to Mexico with family. Your card is gorgeous, those die cuts are amazing and that stenciling on the background is the perfect backdrop.
I love how you framed the sentiment with your washi flowers, Lisa. Very pretty card. So glad you had such a wonderful time on your family vacation.
The sunshine yellow stenciling really sets off those beautiful washi tape flowers, Lisa. Beautiful card ... and beautiful pic of Sweet P. xx
Your card is breath-taken-away gorgeous! The washi flowers are stunning, especially paired with the pretty stenciling and lovely sentiment.
Your Sweet P is adorable and how sweet the story of her 'shy' admirer. He chose a wonderful flower for her! Your trip sounds amazing.

Sweet card, Lisa. However, I think the sweet photo of Penelope stole the show! Can't believe how big she is getting.

I sooo LOVE this card Lisa! Those washi flowers look beautiful around the sentiment with the subtle stencilled background.
