My next card is inspired by Lydia's card which I found through my friend, Betty. I stamped images from W&W In Bloom: Frenchy's Florals onto the W&W Noel die cut using PTI Simply chartreuse, Ripe Avocado, Hibiscus Burst & Memento Love Letter.

ReplyDeleteOh Greta I love both of these so much. The first one is just stunning and the second one is so happy. The Perfect Pearls are so lovely on the flowers and stamping on the letters is a woderful idea. The Noel as a focal point just carries this card. I can't wait to try both of these, thanks so much.

Oh beautiful card, purple is my favorite color, and I love the 2nd card too, the sweet floral is brilliant done on the sentiment, love the spring feel too!

Wonderful cards. Thank you for joining our Challenge a few weeks ago at Word Art Wednesday. We have a week left on our current Challenge and I hope you join us again. Leaving you with the inspiration of God's Word in Psalm 84:11 and it says, "For the LORD God is a sun and shield; The LORD gives grace and glory; No good thing does He withhold from those who walk uprightly." Have a blessed week.
