Welcome to Becca's Heart for Creativity blog!
post purpose/why: this is a quick post for my latest DT commitment inspiration project for My Time To Craft (MTTC) #556. Another team member has suggested the theme to 'celebrate someone special'. My sister-in-law's birthday's next week and her favorite color is blue.
when: #556 starts Friday March 21, 2025 and will be open for submissions for 13 days.
what: Just A Note birthday card
notes:
1. white cardstock A2 size card base (part of pack) = Crafter's Square
2. aquamarine/teal cardstock scrap = Recollections
3. Wild Blueberry cardstock cut to A2 size from a 5" x 7" = CutCardStock
4. Just a note 'sheet' with lilacs = part of a mixed set of stationery designs recycled/upcycled from my mom's house; came from organization's solicitation mailer
5. the mini lavender dots (from 3 color tones) pack = Crafter's Square
6. "HB" wood/red rubber stamp = old/2001 SU
