Had a ping (as Bev would say) to use a hashtag. Wanted to use the Pink Paislee Luxe glitter stickers. The sentiment was cake. Got it down on a strip of vellum but then had to decide which PP to put it on. I kid you not, I must have laid that strip down on 50 sheets of PP, taking a photo each time cuz my brain was getting too foggy to objectively decide on one. The following morning I decided on this PP. Thought the doodle-y, whimsical-ness was a quirky match for the sparkly, "50" mature nature of the card. My friend is so not "50"... whatever that means...
So, this didn't make the cut in the last PC submission. But I am seeing the hashtag all over the place lately. For one brief moment I'm gonna think of myself as a trendsetter ;)
I'm also hooking up at Addicted to CAS #24 where the theme is Transparent. As in vellum in my case.
Thanks for visiting.
