Recently I spent a few hours at MaryAnne's house stamping, and I finally put a card together using some elements she die cut for me. She has this gorgeous new Spellbinder's floral die and cut these beautiful flowers for me, so I added some of the new foliage die cuts and a fancy brad to come up with this card. I'm using the MFP unreleased stamp set "Planted with Love" that I won recently, so I'm feeling very privileged for being able to use it so early. I just loved coloring this little seed packet with Copics and adding all the garden elements just for fun.
And here's the thank-you card I sent to Faith for winning the stamp set. Again, Mary Anne let me use her fabulous MS punch to create the border. I added a piece of white card stock behind it to make it look like a decorative fence. Thanks again for everything ((Mary Anne))!! I've already made 2 more cards with this stamp set again as I'm having trouble putting it down! It's so much fun to color the images, and I just love the 2 little crows in the set, and the face on this little flower is incredibly detailed!!The weather in PA today is like early autumn, and such a welcomed change after the hot, humid weather we've had of late! I'm heading to my SU! demo's house to pick up an order and "play" for a little while this afternoon. Enjoy your day today and thanks for stopping by!

Cute cards!!! Congrats on your win!
Enjoy this gorgeous day :-)
Carol, both of these cards are winners. If someone didn't know better they would swear that it was an actual packet of seeds that you placed on your card. What a beaufiul coloring job. I love that flower die cut. I also love the MFP Planted with Love set. I think I'm going to have to get that MS punch. She does have some nice punches. Your brick wall embossing is one of my favorites. It is like fall here also today. Worked outside most of the day and now I'm shot, so I don't know if I'll get to card making, but I'm going to try hard. See you soon
These are awesome! I don't know what it is about your cards - but I love them. They're very unique, and so unlike a lot of other cards I see online (including my own!)
Carol, I love this, too. What an adorable flower. Pretty fence and I believe you are using the Spellbinders Foliage for your greenery. I just bought it and love it.
Well, duh...I am missing half you are saying. For some reason, on the last two cards I commented on, I just read under the cards and didn't see the top part. You mentioned the foliage die I see. I must be in a hurry as I am leaving town this afternoon. Ha
oh my...what fun dies and great cards!!!
Golly, golly, GOLLY gosh - we'd have fun together, IRL! {!} FIRST OF ALL, it's a privilige to view these incredible cards! SERIOUSLY! I can feel the warmth reflected off that fantastic brick-work (*swoon!) and your use of stamped and die cute images - SPECTACULAR! Glad you got to play - you SO deserved it, my friend! xoxoxo!
