Life is Beautiful

Good morning! Life is beautiful and it does get busy! I'm here this morning with a card that's headed right over to The Paper Players gallery before it closes then I'm back to the business! 

I swapped out the squares in Joanna's sketch for a quartet of small Carta Bella wreaths. They're topped with a PTI peony bloom and a couple of Poppystamps butterflies. The sentiment and it's banner came from the same Carta Bella set. I picked the ME scalloped frame to mimic the look of the wreaths. Hubs thought it was pretty, I hope you do too!

 

Thanks for visiting, I love it when you do!
