Whew! That's a ton of information but I'm so glad that you made it this far! I have several projects to share with you so let's get started!
Here's a project that uses the July My Monthly Hero kit:
I went with a retro look with the soft aqua and soft pink colors. I absolutely love the sentiment's play on words. I'm definitely a Clean + Simple card designer at heart, all that white space makes me a happy crafter.
I also whipped up a card using the CM295 Hay Party Animals set:
Those guys crack me up! I am loving the CG747 County Fair Bold Prints! I used a layer of vellum in between the animals and the County Fair panel so that there was a softer panel underneath the animals.
I can't wait to hop around and see how everyone was inspired. Next up is the awesome Clare Prezzia!

What a wonderful kit and some great cards! I like the clean and simple look of your first card.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, the animals on top of each other is adorable!!!!

ReplyDeleteAll these cards are so beautiful and so different! I can't pick one over the other. Nice way to go out with a bang. We'll miss you at the HA releases, but we still know where to find you! :)
ReplyDeleteAs an oldie(but a goodie) this kit is a memory come true. I can't ride all those wild rides except maybe the merry-go-round, but I sure do remember summers that I did ride them over and over again. The airplane with the banner gave me and idea I would use when giving this card and that is to have the plane puff out Morse Code. Since most people my age would know what it means and then it would give kids the opportunity to look it up on their computer. - .... .- -. -.- ...
ReplyDeleteLove your color choices. This stamp set screams retro!!!!
ReplyDeleteAll your cards are so cute, but the first one is my favorite. Such a great kit!!
