Smile!

I made quick greeting card after purchasing my 1 inch circle punch (something I have wanted for a while, even though it's nothing extravagant). I immediately thought of this idea while thinking of ways I can use the punch in my cards. It was also a great way to use my variety of colored cardstock. 





I was going to put something on the inside, such as "It's contagious!" but the chipboard letters were too big and at the time I had run out of black ink for my stamps, so for now the card remains blank. I was also really happy with how the lighting turned out in these pictures, they were taken on the white comforter on my bed that is right next to the window. I have to agree with those that have told me natural lighting works best, thanks for the tip! :) 

This was just a quick post as I have a few minutes before getting back to preparing for my graduation party tomorrow, I will post my thank you cards on Sunday once I take pictures after knowing exactly how many more I need to make. 


I hope you all have a great weekend, thanks for stopping by, your support and feedback is always greatly appreciated!
