Sentimental about paper

Before we get started, I'd like to apologize to you all for not being a good commenter on your blogs this past month or so.  It seems we've been running over to my folks' every week - first for their 66th anniversary, then 2 funerals for 2 of my aunts, and then last weekend a wedding reception in the family........endings and beginnings.   I think we're home for awhile now, and I hope to get back into my regular schedule.  Thanks for bearing with me.

The July Diva Dare at Verve Stamps is to make a project using design papers and only Verve sentiments.  Here's my entry, using papers from jillibean soup and the sentiment from the Bloom & Grow set:


supplies: white cardstock, jillibean soup "Blossom Soup" and "Dutch Mustard Soup" and pink and brown dot from girls' paperie, Verve #VS-0144 Bloom & Grow, nesties classic circles, pink and yellow buttons, corner rounder, Martha Stewart doily punch


And I'd also like to enter this into wee Memories CAS challenge.

    Love your new blog header Lin! It's probably not so new, but I have also been MIA for family reasons! Anyhow, I totally love the beautiful pp you used on your card today, so very pretty!
