Plus it matches the colors in her room!

Momenta D-Lite Post

Sharing my first post for the Momenta D-Lite team.  

I created four note cards and a little bag to hold them.

I loved how the first card came out, the one that says 

I love you,

so other 3 are basically the same layouts, just switched up a bit with buttons, hearts and butterflies.  I love the pastels against the kraft paper, so cute.

You have til the end of the month to link your layout  and you get a free digi kit for just entering.  Pretty cool!

I am so jealous of my digi team members and their amazing layouts...check them out.  So inspiring!  I must learn to add text to my layouts the way they do!

This is my take!
