Cards from a Play Date

My SU! demo held an all-day play date over the weekend, and we had a great time using all of her SU! products that we wish we owned! I found this fabulous Apothecary Art stamp along with the matching Labels collection Framelit dies and made some cards with the new SU! "IN" colors. This one is Pistachio Pudding, done with In colors dsp and a fancy fan embossing folder. The punch is retired, but I always liked it and finally had a chance to use it. The flowers were colored with Crisp Cantaloupe and Pistachio Pudding markers, and the sentiment is from another set I'm unable to identify.

Here's one done in Strawberry Slush colors, with the same elements as the first card.

I hope you're staying cool in your neck of the woods! Summer has arrived, and along with it came that suffocating humidity! Take care, and thanks for stopping by!

Ditto what Lynn said. LOL Both are gorgeous, but that strawberry is eye popping. I still use my eyelet scallop punch to. I just love it.
Yes it is stifling here. Just the type of day to shop or stay inside. I've done both. Talk soon, my friend.

Normally I'm a very pink person but I really like the colour combination in the top card. Hugs Mrs A.

So happy you had some stamping fun! These are just gorgeous. I am on Jim's laptop, and missing all of my links and such. Hope we figure out something soon.

I want to rub my hand over that embossing. Every time you use that folder, I think the same thing. It really makes a wonderfully, crisp texture. And I like the rest of the cards too - lol.

Love how the patterned paper matches the embossing, beautiful cards. Cathy x
