I made cards using Pedal Pushers and Beauty in Progress.


Here are the adorable Pedal Pushers.


Don't they look like they're having fun!

So true...

This is one of the card kits I used to create this card and the Beauty Salon card.
The papers are all so pretty and the ribbon and embellishments coordinate perfectly!

All of my card supplies with the exception of the brown molding, blue flower and acrylic frame are from this wonderful card kit.  The colors, papers and embellishments are so much fun!
