I just love both of your cards today! Those chevrons on their side is such a clever application!
Gorgous, cheery cards, Giovana. Great idea to run the chevron vertical.

Just Wonderful!
Lovely cards

How pretty and fun!
Both cards are very pretty. Good job.
Great looking card (no silver in my hair!)
I really like that grandparent saying!!!!! And the way you put that card together really reminds me of my gram. The second card is simpler but very effective.
I simply love both these cards. The grandparent one is so unusual with the coloring, layering, and stitching. I think I like this one because I have 8 great grandchildren. I love the pink, yellow and blue in the Birthday card also. Thanks
Beautiful cards. Love the outside the box thinking on the first and the colors of the second.
Love the elegance of your piano card and the simplicity of the flower design. tfs
Love the cards - the stitching takes them up a notch. The first card is lovely - using the bow easy is a great idea. The second card - I would totally use that for my niece's birthday!
I love the grandparents card.So gorgeous.
Oh, my Giovana - you make the most luscious looking cards. They are deeply feminine and PERFECT.
Such bright and happy cards, love the sewing detail :-)
Stunning! Love all those layers on your first card!
Love all the layers of the Grand card. Beautiful papers too. I lkie the vertical chevrons and the pop of color in the flower in the second. Thanks.
These cards are beautiful
Love the colors and layers. Thinking I "need" both these sets.
2 absolutely beautiful cards!!!
Love your cards...that pink flower just pops and I love its background!
Gorgeous cards, Giovana! I always love your beautiful details!
Oh My! Your Grand Tags card is beautiful! I love it! So soft and romantic!
Your Pretty Papers card is so sunny and bright! It is definitely a "Pick-me-up" card :o)
