Sweet Tart!

 Happy Monday!

Was your weekend super fun? Mine was! For our anniversary the hubby and I decided to take a trip up to Dearborn, Michigan to visit the Henry Ford Museum. Craig is a huge Ford fan and just about everyone in my family has worked at Ford Motor Company. Oh yeah, we are way blue collar :)

As an added bonus their was an Ikea about 20 minutes from where we were so before coming home we stopped there and bought some fabulous things to help organize my craft space, yay! I swear once it's not a disaster put together I'll share photos :)

I saw this adorable card by Samantha Mann in the Sweet Stamp Shop Flickr group and I couldn't stop thinking about that green Amy Tangerine Paper! I thought it would be a fabulous way to use that super sweet digital stamp Nicole made :) and it just so happens that The Play Date Cafe colors are black, white, and lime this week! Okay so it's not happenstance, I totally made this card with them in mind hehe :)

I love the way my little lime turned out! I printed it out on that Amy Tan paper, solid neon green, and white. I trimmed and layered until I achieved a look I liked. 

The sentiment was trimmed into a banner and accented by some bright green Doodlebug Twine. I have the bright assortment and all the colors are awesome! I adhered everything with dimensional adhesive then applied some stardust stickles. Super simple card :)

If you want a chance to win a Sweet Stamp Shop set of your choice or a guest DT spot here is still time to play along. The Paper Piecing challenge doesn't close until tomorrow night at midnight! You can see all the details here

Thanks for popping in!
