New Cards

I've been playing with the fun images I stamped at Seminar and thought I'd share a few.

The following cards are sort of in honor of my friend Laurie. She is such an artist when it comes to stamping, and I love her stuff! She loves...polkadots. I decided to try some myself and added them to this girl's dress--on her puffy sleeve and the ruffle at the bottom of her dress.

Here's a close-up to see the sprinkles on the cupcake (made with Souffle pens), the polkadots on the dress, and the Stickles on her wand and wings. The saying is "Happy Birthday...with sprinkles on top."

This card looks very "Laurie" to me in style, and it was tough for me not to add extra ink to the edges and keep in "clean and simple." I didn't attempt the gorgeous large bows that Laurie usually does, though! It's very hard to see, but the scarlet paper has little hearts (from TAC's new PWP set) stamped in Versamark Champagne Frost. I LOVE this stuff!!! Just a hint of sparkle on top of the watermark.

Diane! You are soo sweet! I do love the cards! The polka-dots are wonderful! And you know I love the kraft and red! Melts my heart! :)

Awesome...gotta get me some champagne frost...thanks for using it on the scarlet cardstock. A couple years ago, I used the regular versamark on scarlet while watching tv...when the show was over, it was dry and disappeared. I was so bummed...
