Another Smootchy Presto-y Card!

I'm just LOVING working with the Presto Patterns Specialty Paper in the Summer Mini Catalog – especially when paired with Smootch Spritz! It's just SO much FUN! Here is today's card featuring these fant-abulous items! This card was a mother's day card that I made for my sister-in-law.

ALY'S HELPFUL HINTS:

Want to learn the complete ins and outs of how to use Presto Patterns Designer Paper and Smootch Sprtiz? Look no further than my Video Tutorial (Click Here!) featuring these items!
Two of the colors that I have selected for this card are Blush Blossom and Brocade Blue. I have to be honest… you couldn't get me to touch Blush Blossom with a pole just weeks ago – but with it becoming part of the Color Renovation's Retiring Colors I've forced myself to break it out and I've been having a lot of fun with it! This might be a color that you want to add to your collection while you still can.
Basic Grey works with these two muted colors to bring some contrast and make things "pop."
Create your OWN Designer Brads by using Designer Brads in combination with halfback pearls as shown here. The silver base was once a Star Designer Brad – but you would never know. The halfback pearl from a Pretties Kit and secured with a Mini Glue Dot does just the trick to transform this brad into elegance.

U Pick 2: Regal Bella

The 4th Card for my U Pick 2 Menu was pretty close to copied for a SWAP I saw at Convention. I didn't SWAP myself at Convention this year to see the label on the back and give proper credit, I had just taken a picture. The only things I changed were the punch and the background technique. The punch that you see here is the one that you can get for FREE During Sale-A-Bration! And, this stamp set, "Three Little Words" is a stamp set that you can take for FREE During Sale-A-Bration!

Because this is a U Pick 2 offering, you won't find Aly's Helpful Hints here. BUT, you'll get LOTS of Helpful Hints AND get to make the card yourself when you coordinate a U Pick 2 Private Stamping Class of your own! Click Here for more details. This particular U Pick 2 is one you won't want to miss! We'll be doing a very fun background technique with Rubbing Alcohol and Shimmer Paint!
