Up first, Theresa's set, French Flair!  Here is what I have for you today:

I decided to do a collage like creation.   Loads of fun!  And see that gorgeous envelope?  Gina now is carrying matching envelopes!  Im in LOVE!  I have tried to make a matching envelope this release for each card, and its so fun to do!  I mainly do like on this one.  I will mask off a bit on the edges, then stamp in either the coordinating ink color or ink color that matches elements on the card.  I totally love these envelopes!  :D  Can ya tell?  ha!

Up next is Melanie's newest Stately Flowers set, set #10!!  Here is my card for today:

I used the sagebrush image for my card...embossed in white onto this kraft colored dp.  I took some markers after embossing and kinda filled in teh yellow flowers and the greenery parts.  then i spongs around the image to make it kinda pop out.  And there is another envelope!  :D

I have more pics of my creations with these sets down below!  there are the ones I showed at the release party!  :D

Beautiful Cat! Love all your work! <3 Love the envelopes too! Going to pick up some on my next order! :) I had to read the write up on the sage brush one... At first I thought you fussy cut it, and I was thinking... no way... LOL I'm glad you didn't do all that... stamping & embossing is much quicker! LOL Love your work! <3 :)
