Today we are featuring two sentiment sets: One Day at a Time and Simply Sentiments.

I started by cutting the Round Top Tag in both Stone and Lime Green. I trimmed off the bottom of the the Lime one and layered it onto the Stone tag. Covering the seam is a banner die-cut from the Greetings Frame Confetti Cuts set, which stands in as a "road."

I stamped the Simply Sentiments sentiment on an angle, then heat embossed it in white and accented it with pink enamel dots. At the top of the tag is a Hang Ups Too Confetti Cuts die-cut in RC Aqua card stock.

The bicycle is from Rollin'. I stamped, colored and popped it up with foam tape. I also added some flowers to the back, using an image from Hippity Hoppity. Surrounding the tag are two clouds and a sun, all cut with Sun 'N Clouds Confetti Cuts dies. The sun is topped with a stitched-edge circle from the Detailed Circles Confetti Cuts die set out of the new Sunshine card stock.

The Cloud White card base is topped with a Vertical Stripes Cover Panel die-cut, also in Cloud White.

Proceeds from One Day at at Time will be donated to THE PINK FUND. 

The Pink Fund provides 90 day non-medical cost-of-living expenses to breast cancer patients in active treatment for breast cancer, so they can focus on healing, raising their families, and returning to the workplace.

 I decided to give the skates some patterned paper legs and create a scene with them. (I was inspired by memories of my daughter learning to skate, thus the pink skates and colorful "tights.") The sentiment, from One Day At A Time, is stamped, trimmed down to a banner, and sponged with yellow ink.

The legs are cut from a pattern in the Pattern Play paper collection. I paper pieced the skates using a pink stripe pattern from the True Love paper collection. 

Same as with yesterday's cards, I added some metallic silver to the skates, as well as Glossy Accents on the wheels. I also adhered pom poms to the skates for a fun, girly detail.
