Varied Vases Tripple

This is a card that I made for a past challenge,

and then ended up replacing with another.  I used the

images from Varied Vases on page 45, using a Pool Party

Stampin' Blend to add a bit more color.

I used the Stitched Shapes Framelits (p 220) to

cut out the focal images.

The Gorgeous Grape layer was run through the

Layered Leaves Textured Impressions Embossing 

Folder on page 222.

Serene Garden Dandelion Wishes

Here is another quick card, thanks

to the Stampin' Blends for your coloring pleasure.

This card uses the Serene Garden Stamp set on page 166

with the sentiment from Dandelion Wishes on page 118.

It is a single layer card, with a layered sentiment.

I like the Serene Garden images, because they can be

stamped in different directions/angles, and look

like it was meant to be!

Animal Outing with Stampin' Blends

Not to ignore the new Holiday catalog products,

but I still like to pull out my Animal Outing stamp

set (p 27) and the coordinating Animal Friends Thinlits,

on page 215.  It's a happy bundle because it 

allows coloring with the Stampin' Blends (p 205),

as well as creation of darling cards.  Honestly,

I smile every time I work with these images.
