Up first today is Melanie Muenchinger's newest set, her next additon of State Flowers, this one is called "Stately Flowers 4". Oh so much FUN! Here is my card using this set that I gave a sneak peek here on my blog of:

I went for an elegant look and whats more elegant that black, white and red, right? I colored the flower (in red, because Melanie LOVES red!) after stamping it two times, fussy cut one of them to pop up and give it more dimension! I love coloring these flowers...but you will probably see along the way some that arent colored and they look fantastic too!

Ok, next up is Tami Mayberry's newest set called: Ticket Trio...OH the possibilities with this one! Here is my card I did, a masculine card:

Getting my brother's birthday cards done early! The biggest ticket in this set will fit the Tim Holtz Ticket Strip die, which is what I used. They will also coordinate with Spellbinders ticket dies too, I just didnt have them.

Ready for more eye candy?

Up first today is Melanie Muenchinger's newest set called Basket Additions 2. This first card is one I showed at the party:

I made a little beach scene on this one! I tucked the basket 'down' in the sand by cutting a little oval slit to put it in. This will work for a few teachers I know, lol! Here is another quick card I made, showing you that you do not have to have the basket stamps of Melanie's...you can make a cute card without it!

I used those cute flags in the set and the greetings! How cute is this? And for a friend of my sister's that was turning 39, she loved it my sister said! :D

Ok, next is a super fun set called Lacy Borders. Here is a card I showed at the release party yesterday:

This was another super quick card! These borders look SO real! On this one, I have heat embossed it in white and it really pops doing that!

Ok, ready for more awesome eye candy??
