Oh... and I found a good use for a few of those Prima flowers. LOL

Debi she will be thrilled with them! Who wouldn't be. Terrific cards. Bonus points for using flowers.

Love these, Debi. You know I'm addicted to foldies.

It's a great way to use those 6x6 paper pads, too.... I think that's what I had in mind when I was buying them.... so... now I can use them.

What a thoughtful gift! I love them!

What a great gift, and cool cards too!
I know my Mom and sisters always enjoy a gift of handmade cards!

More cards....

these are glossy paper... the base has color rolled on with a brayer... from one of those multi-color inkpads (that I can't remember the name of .. for the life of me) ... anyway.... roll the ink on a base.... then stamp on a smaller piece using the same ink - so it matches exactly

anyway... these were fun!!

These were done using this technique that I saw on one of Gina K's videos... she calls it a retiform design.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q2YMN9gcQKc

These were all done with an idea from Jennifer McGuire.... sentiment backgrounds.... I put all my clear "thank you" stamps on the Misti tool and made several backgrounds... fun idea... I may try to find a bunch of Happy Birthday stamps and do some of those, too...

These are some old card tops that I had made ages ago.... and decided to finish off the cards.... hooray....

Posted: **Mon Mar 06, 2017 12:17 pm**

So.... I'm going to play some more tonight.... want to try some other techniques and use some more stamps.... I'm on a roll so I don't want to stop yet... LOL

WOW! You have been a busy girl. These are great. My faves are the dragonflies.

Dang - you have been busy! They're all wonderful.

I like the dragonfly, too.... they demo'd it at the Stamp convention Peggy and I went to.... so we both caved and bought glossy cardstock and the inkpad and the stamp... I wonder if she's done anything with hers yet... LOL

Now I have to figure out how to box them up as a pretty gift... I'm considering de-constructing the envelope box that I have handy and then covering it with pretty paper and re-constructing it. We'll see how that goes... LOL
