These cards were made and sent to OWH a while ago, but I never posted them and they work for today's OWH midweek throwdown color challenge to use pink & green. I used some pale pink cardstock along with some SU! celery dsp and did some one-sheet wonder cards using assorted punches and ribbons. The sentiment says "You make me smile" and it's from SU! While I'm posting these cards, I'll show you the rest that I made for this grouping...
For this group, I used some yellow & gold card stock, and a different sentiment that says "You are LOVED." I assembled a couple pinwheels to use up the little scraps of paper, adding candi dots to the flower centers on each card.
Here are all 18 cards together. Since SU! retired Certainly Celery green, I figured there was no reason to hang onto the dsp anymore, so I used mostly all of the pack I had left.
Thanks for stopping by today and make it a great Wednesday.
(Hey Mike Mike Mike Mike! Guess what day it is? Humppppppppp DAY!)
Apparently I watch too much tv, because that hilarious commercial comes to mind every Wednesday :)
Keep smiling :)

Awesome cards, Carol! wow, you've been busy. :) I love that "you are loved" sentiment. Is it Stampin up?
Wow! You got so many lovely cards made for OWH. The colours are gorgeous...too that they retired that pretty green shade!
I love the one that sort of looks like a flattened pinwheel!
Very pretty cards. I like how you paired the papers to create several different cards out the same color scheme.
Carol, LOVE all the variations! Beautifully done!
Gosh Carol!!! ALL of these are so fantastic!! You were busy, busy, BUSY!! And.....I love each and every one of them! Great design and beautiful card!
Yep, happy Hump Day!!!

Oh Wow! What an assortment of cards you managed.Each set is just lovely, and your imagination in using up that Celery paper is marvelous. Loved the different trims on the various cards, and your OWH folks are going to be overwhelmed! Good for you on doing this, and making them so pretty too. TFS & Hugs
Wow...Carol, you are the card making machine. How fabulous these are and you've really used up some dp. You also had a punch workout with the pretty flowers.
Yep, it is hump day..yea!!
mmm mmm mmm love those two colors...so soft and romantic very pretty.
"WOW" is all I can say. I had to stare at those pinwheels. Really stunning.
These are some beautiful cards and it was so good that they covered the request for this week's Throw Down. Each of them are so pretty. It's funny because the other day I made a pinwheel card for a birthday card. I adore the You Are Loved sentiment. All your little butterflies and "candy" are very sweet additions. I'm with you on that commercial. Love It. Talk to you soon my friend.
Oh my goodness! You continually amaze me... not only with the quanity of cards you make...but the quality of the beautiful cards too.
You make me tired just seeing how much stamping you do!!! What a lovely collection to share Carol!
So amazing, Carol. Why can't I get my brain to work in multiples? You always do it so darn well. These are simply gorgeous.
Love the sweet butterfly- and your pinwheel is beautiful! Wonderful group of cards- and how lucky were you to have some done that perfectly matched the challenge! And me too-- I love that commercial--- Mike, Mike, Mike....!!!
So many WONDERFUL cards!! WOW!!
(And that commercial makes me laugh every time, too!! My hubby just rolls his eyes. LOL But I agree with you. It's hilarious!!)
Carol,
What a fabulous group of cards! Love them! TFS!
WOW - these are gorgeous Carol! LOL - my 5 year old loves imitating that camel!
These are fantastic. Love each and every one. Pink and green are my favourite colours to work with but the second set you of colours are super too. hugs Mrs A.
p.s. I have struggled to make just 8 cards this month!
Fabulous set of cards! I love your idea of placing a flower in the center of the pinwheel - it makes a great background. I also really like the circular sentiment for the flower centers too. I love them all!
Beautiful cards, Carol.
Wow - Carol! You are a card making machine! These are lovely - each one is super pretty, but the heart you have doing these for such a great cause is really impressive. Hugz - lots of them!
Such a pretty collection of cards, Carol! It's fun to see how, even you used the same papers and punches, no two seem exactly alike.
These are so beautiful! Love the colors for both sets. I have to keep this in mind so I can make some gift sets. Very impressive. TFS
Both sets are fabulous Carol! TFS Love the flowers and sentiment on the second set.
