Pretty Pink Posh Design Team Announcement + Card

Hello, friends! I'm delighted to share that I am continuing on with the Pretty Pink Posh Design Team. Just like the sun on my card, the PPP family is truly a ray of sunshine in my life. They have hearts of gold, and I feel so blessed!  Make sure you head to the Pretty Pink Posh Blog to see the rest of the team. They are having a huge giveaway that you won't want to miss!

Here's a little bit more about my card.  The inspiration for this card came from a song I used to sing as a child.  "In the leafy treetops the birds sing good morning.  They're first to see the sun.  They must tell everyone..." It often runs through my mind when I am walking in the mornings, and it popped into my head when I was looking through the June release full of sunshine and summer.

I used buttercup ink from Concord and 9th to ink up the Starburst Stencil, and created a happy summer scene using the Fruit Tree Dies and the Stacked Edges 3 dies (to create a grassy hill).  

I did some simple coloring with alcohol markers and added some birds using A Little Birdie stamps and dies.  I also colored some flowers from the Easter Bunnies stamp set.  It makes me so happy when I can mix and match things from different sets.  Finally, I added a sentiment from Simple Sentiments. (Even after all this time it is still a favorite go to set of mine for sentiments.)

Thanks so much for visiting today and sharing in my happy news!  Also, don't forget to go to the Pretty Pink Posh Blog to celebrate the whole team and enter to win the huge giveaway they have going on!
