Do More of What Makes You Happy

What makes you happy?

I love this card because it truly is “the little things” that matter.  I saw this design on Pinterest (Pinterest makes me happy) and I made a few little changes.  I can’t always reproduce a card exactly as I see it, but I can use the supplies that I have and create a similar look.

The background stripes are made with freehand strokes from an Aqua Painter.  One aspect that I did copy from the original design was the order of the colors – do you notice that they are not in a predictable pattern?  Who says we need to always follow a pattern.  In case you are curious, the colors I used are Smoky Slate, Pool Party, Soft Sky and Pear Pizzazz.

I made multiples of this card because it really came together quite quickly.  It’s always good to have extra cards on hand and I think this one would suit many occasions.
