Hi everyone!
Wow1  Labour Day Weekend!   We still have lots of nice days ahead, so get out and enjoy the beautiful weather.

My card today is for all those people who need a Smile!
I used the Daisy Punches mixed with Botanical Builder Frame-lits, along with Purple Posy cardstock.   I also learned a new Technique called "Flicking".   This was used on the petals to add to the depth and color on the petals.   You can see a couple fell off during the process!  😍

Supplies Used:
Stamp Set:  Daisy Lane
Cardstock:  Purple Posy, Whisper White
Ink:  Garden Green, Purple Posy, Light and dark Highland Heather Blends

Hi there Everyone!
It is the Masculine Challenge again!   I am still loving the new "Sailing Home Stamp and Die set".   Went to a card retreat last week and made 7 different cards from this set.   So for the person that likes sailing (Man or Woman) this is one of the cards I made.

When I lived in Vernon I had 4 Magnolia trees that bloomed at different times in the Spring.   They were so striking with beautiful blooms combined with the dark boughs.   So...yesterday I played and used the beautiful "Magnolia Lane"stamp and die set.   It stamps beautifully.   I made 5 cards, so there will be a few pictures to show you how beautiful they turned out.

Ink:  Memento Black, Blends - Dark & Light Old Olive, Petal Pink & Mossy Meadow
