Love Those Pretty Papers Challenge

Today's card was made especially for a fun challenge over at Love Those Pretty Papers. Their March 2026 post is asking for circles (which are optional) in addition to most of your card having pretty papers on it. I started to think about circles, and decided that they would dictate the whole card.

I knew it would be a bigger card, since I wanted my circles to be about 2" in diameter and I also wanted a border on them. I ended up using a 5 x 7 card base, but the circle do stick off a little. It still stand up and looks cute and creative, however it doesn't fit into a standard 5 x 7 envelope. I think I'll get some nice kraft gift wrap from the Dollar Tree and use this on the top of a gift, kind of like a giant "to and from" tag.

Here's my complete supply list:

• Stampin Up! Always Mossy Meadow Paper
• SU! Flirty Flamingo Card Stock
• SU! Birthday Bouquet Patterned Papers
• Spellbinders Happy Birthday Die
• Spellbinders Circle Dies
• Spellbinders Circle Scallop Dies
• Doodlebug Designs Enamel Stars

I loved doing this challenge and may even join in again before the end of the month. I have so many more ideas (in addition to having way too much patterned paper!).  Many thanks to Diane and Darlene for putting on this and so many other wonderful challenges! And thank you for stopping by today!
