I've got two cards to share today. My first card uses a brand new stamp set called Fresh Bouquet, and I am entering it at three different challenges who all want something new.
I am entering this card at Just Us Girls #375: New, Simon Says Monday Challenge: Start Afresh, and Simon Says Wednesday Challenge: New Something.
My second card was inspired by the sketch at CAS(E) this Sketch #203, The Male Room #51: Anything Goes, and Seize the Birthday: Anything Goes.
Thanks for Visiting

What amazes me here is the contrast Joyce.. so soft and feminine on the first.. florals and embossing is just dreamy.. .then you go all clean and graphic with the lighthouse.. looks like a post card - clean lines, bold colors... stunning!
ReplyDeleteTwo fantastic cards, Joyce. That stamp set in your first floral card is a stunner, and you've used it beautifully. I love your use of opposite corners, and the colors are wonderful. LOVE the lighthouse. I have the wave die and have never used it. Going to pull it out in keeping with my quest to use old, new stuff. Have a wonderful day!
ReplyDeleteLove the bouquet in opposite corners, Joyce. That's a trick I should try. Your lighthouse has so much dimension.
ReplyDeleteTwo different styles; two fantastic cards! Your Fresh Bouquet is beautiful; signs of spring that see me smiling! Your lighthouse, set against the inlay water, is striking!
ReplyDeleteHugs~c
