There are a few spring/summer collection releases from Fancy Pants Designs.  They are called Summer Sun & Making Waves, both have an undertone of nautical + summer, one being super bright and happy with yellows & pinks, and one more traditional with blues & reds.  I adore both of them tremendously.  Today, I am sharing a card using the Summer Sun collection. This combination of colors is one of my favorites, red/pinks, yellow and aqua.  I am always drawn to that combination, add in some whales and anchors and I'm a little smitten for sure!  When you buy a collection, it makes the process so easy, because it all perfectly coordinates!! 1.  Trim cardstock 3 3/4 inches by 5 1/2 inches. 2.  Adhere pattern paper panel to card by using foam tape. 3.  Die cut hearts into a panel of pattern paper. 4.  Using different pattern paper, again die cut hearts. 5.  Adhere the panel to the card using foam squares....

I needed a few super easy gift cards, to give to my children.  I do not get them Easter baskets anymore, just their favorite candies, maybe a small gift and then gift cards. I used a gift card die template for my projects, you don't even need to find a way to enclose them, because they latch shut. I used some Fancy Pants Designs pattern paper & stickers from Everyday Circus and Burlap & Bouquets .  The sticker sheets have a ton of different alphabet fonts, and great little elements that made decorating these gift cards so very easy.
