Paisley Thanks Again

I just can't resist this darn DSP!  The flowers are just too pretty to let sit on my shelf.  I also just wanted to try out this color combination: Marina Mist and Cajun Craze.  I think the colors are okay together.  Afterall, they are part of the Paisley Petals DSP.  I just don't know how I like how I made this card.  The Marina Mist ribbon and the layer behind the first punch just don't stand out.  I probably should have used a third color.

I have also done this layout previously HERE, and it's based on THIS ONE.

August Workshop Card #1

I had a couple of workshops this month.  Here is one of the cards we made.

I am totally in love with Just Believe stamp set.  It's so pretty and so versatile and so easy to make a card with.

Blossom Bouquet Birthday

This card is CASE'd from Lori Schuch.  I changed up the colors, because I really wanted to use Perfect Plum.  Instead of brads in the center of my blossoms, I used Dazzling Details (soon-to-be in Holiday Mini Catalog).

Cupcake Birthday

Doesn't seeing a cupcake on a birthday card just make you smile?  What's that about?  This one is CASE'd from Deb.  A minor color change and different pattern paper from the same DSP pack, and there is my card!  Aren't you so thankful that there are such wonderful talents on the 'net from whom we can CASE from?  I sure am! :)
