The Sweetest Thing "One of a Kind" Card

Hello fellow paper crafters! Today is my turn to post on the Pumpkin Spice Blog.

Today I'm sharing a card I whipped out using the My Mind's Eye "The Sweetest Thing" paper line and embellishments. I'm one of those paper crafters that falls in love with a paper line and buys almost EVERYTHING from that line. It becomes the "go to" thing that I use when making cards or whatever. Those papers and such sit on my desk and I am constantly reaching for them. It's always worth it to buy it ALL because eventually I use every last morsel. Do you do that too?

I am still so totally obsessed with anything hexagon and it's usually the first paper to go.
Don't you love the soft pink hexagons? That's a stamp! Now all my projects can be loaded with hexagons!
