Now lemme tell you what I love about this set. For starters, it's not pink. I'm all for the classics, don't get me wrong, but it's not very often that you see holiday lines in non-traditional colors but still maintaining the key elements (like red and hearts). MME did this with their Colorful Christmas line a few months ago, that set with the orange and fuschia and light blue, but still maintaining the key elements like snowmen, snowflakes, and Christmas trees.
So yeah...this set has it all: hearts, red and lovebirds; sooo perfect. I love that you can totally use this for a frilly girl, or you can spin it in a masculine way because of the Crayola-colors look to it. The kit costs $8.99 and I would highly recommend getting it; double-sided cardstock and the diecuts. I have made bunches of stuff with this one kit and you're gonna see them all!
So here's my kick-off card to this series. I used a base of Lemon Tart paired with LMD (Love Me Do) papers and it matched quite nicely, and then I stamped my sentiment in Ocean Tides which went really well with the blue - it really is more of an ocean blue than a true-blue. I've got some lace trim in the background from A Million Memories, and finished the card off with some vintage buttons. By the way - see the image panel with the 3 panes? That's from the packaging paper that you see on the front of the kit - wasn't gonna let that go to waste!
See you back here tomorrow with day 2 of Love Me Do.

Fun card! Love all the patterns! This is one of my new fave's too! Can't get enough of the bright patterns...so NOT winter ;)
I totally love, Love Me Do... LOL! :) The papers are great because they're unusual, and they're bright but not obnoxious... Just a fabby Valentine's line.
Love your card, it's so pretty! :)
How can you not love this paper?! It's just fabulous, and so is your card. Can't wait to see more!
This paper has great colors, definitely! And it is SO you! Can't wait to see a new "series" of cards.
Not used to yellow on the card - but it is a nice look! Can't wait to see the rest as I love the umbrella series so much I bought the set!
