I got a thank you card from my sweet friend, Carly. Oh, and I got to see her beautiful little 4 month old daughter Reagan for the first time a couple of weeks ago. Of course, I loved the simple design of the card with a touch of gold, and it kept popping up in my mind.

I finally pulled out my Stampin’ UP! Forever Fern and put my spin on the design using my stamping stuff! I used Soft Succulent ink and card stock with a Very Vanilla Card base. I stamped and heat embossed one of the images in gold and added some Gilded Gems. It’s hard to capture the sheen of the embossing. The sentiment comes from the Heartfelt Wishes stamp set.

Do you ever get inspired by cards you get that are mass produced (not hand-made) and think I can make one like that? I take pics all the time of things that inspire me- I think I may start sharing them:)

Thanks for buzzing by, friends…
