As I knew we were heading away for the weekend to Hamilton, I managed to get a couple of cards done on Friday night. This one I started on Thursday night by stamping the background - used Memento Ink ( Bamboo Leaves). Friday I coloured the background and the main flowers with my watercolour pencils and put the card together. I was following instructions from the
Spotted Canary news letter. I changed my sentiment to this one from American Crafts. I found it at The Stationery Warehouse when I went looking for plain white cardstock.... got sidetracked!!... I am really pleased how it turned out...but it is easy when you have instructions!!!! even when I made a few changes.
This second card I made rather quickly. I need a card to say farewell to my boss.... he has got another job so this is to say congratulations and farewell. I used a design I saw a couple of weeks ago on Hero Arts. I masked the top of the card and then stamped the Scattered Leave Border , used the gel pen to make a line and some faux stitching. For the bottom half I used some digital paper I found at
Digi Free's web site. Not too bad for a quick card.

Hi, Dawn! I love the flowers in a vase that you created for your first card! So cheerful! And the striped paper on the second card looks shimmery and metallic! Nice cards! :-)
