Want to see
what we’re making? Your wish is my
command…
This card was CASE'd from Sue Mohr (one of my favorite
people to CASE). It is such a romantic card to be used for
Valentine's Day or an anniversary. It also has a soft look
and could be used as a sympathy card.
Next, is a card using the Painted Poppies stamp set. And,
when you pair it with the Peaceful Poppies DSP, the possibilities
are endless! This card and the one below were both
inspired from Kim Smith's designs.
Have I mentioned that I love the Painted Poppies and
Peaceful Moments Bundles? I do, I do, I do!!!!
I think this card could be used for every occasion
you can imagine!
Last, but not least... I had to get out of my rut of poppies!
Using the Timeless Tulips Bundle, this card is CASE'd from
Susan Levasseur. Great to send as a sympathy card,
get well card or Easter card.
