Hello friends! I’m still not ready for summer to end. How about you? I decided to use the bright and cheerful You Are My Sunshine collection from Bella Blvd to help keep summer going. (Although I’m really excited to start on fall cards soon. Lol!)
I purchased all of the 12×12 papers, 2 ephemera packs and a few Bella Pops. There are lots of other great coordinating items as well.
I made a total of 36 cards using Bella Blvd’s You Are My Sunshine collection.
Here are close up pictures of the cards I made, including sketches and measurements. All of my cards are A2 size. For sketches that don’t include measurements, I simply figure the measurements out on my own, for what works for me. Go HERE to see my video explaining how I determine card sketch measurements. All cards are made using Bella Blvd’s You Are My Sunshine paper collection.

Thanks for visiting my blog today.
I appreciate your kindness and support!
Wow, Kristie! This is a fantastic set of cards. There are some beautiful papers in this collection and some super cute ephemera pieces. The colors are bright and cheery. Your cards are a wonderful showcase of them all. Thank you for sharing and for your hard work in pulling this all together. Summer ending is bittersweet for most, but it’s all good.
Oh my gosh, that round bee is so cute! And those butterfly ephemeral pieces are so colorful! Once again, I have one or two sheets of this collection but never saw the entire thing. I NEED the rest of this paper! Great cards–the sketches you used are perfect for showing off the cute patterns and the images. TFS! Off to put some things on my wish list. 🙂
So cute, Kristie! I love the “Be someone’s sunshine” card. What a great sentiment! I still haven’t gotten any peel-offs. Ive gone to her site a number of times and then can’t decide what to get because there are so many choices… LOL. I love all the cards you make with them!!
