Daisies at Sunset

Another quick post until I get caught up.  Melissa Banbury used a brayer to create her card.  Since I only have one brayer, I thought I would try sponging the colors.  I believe it turned out nicely and my customers voted it as their favorite from my July Stamp Camp.    I am really wondering how I have survived all these years of cardmaking without the Oval Framelit dies.  Love em!

A Wish with Clout

I used this card as a make & take at a crop I attended last Friday evening.  The ladies loved making it.  It is just a very classy card filled with meaning.  I hope it will brighten the day of the recipients.  We also made this card at my June Stamp Camp.

Diva Jeans

This is the Top Pick from Saturday’s stamp camp just as I thought it would be.  I mean, what Stampin’ Diva would not love it?  Or part with it?  I had to make several so that I could keep one in my stash to cherish.  It is such a cute card and fun to  make too.
