This card is designed similar to the VERY FIRST card I ever mad, way back in March of this year. It was at a stamping class at Blair's. The card we made looked like this so I decided to change it up a bit, using a different sentiment and colours. This is the first time I have used Taken With Teal and I really like it!!

Paper: Taken With Teal, Whisper White
Ink: Taken With Teal, Rose Red, Orchid Opulence, Pink Passion and Summer Sun

Paper: Whisper White, More Mustard, Chocolate Chip
Ink: Chocolate Chip, More Mustard
Stamps: Lexicon Of Leaves
Accessories: Chocolate Chip Ribbon, Stampin Up Pastels

It's days like today that I wish I had a bigger variety of ribbon for my projects. When I find a design I like, I usually make several version of it with varying sentiments and colours. But the last two series of cards I have made involve ribbon and I don't have a lot of selection. I think with next month's club order I will have to order some more.

I copied the basic layout of this card from a mother's day card I saw on Split Coast Stampers. I decided to make this one a Thank You card instead. It is very similar to the purple Thank You card I made last week and I really like the layout.

I have been making lots of use out of my soft subtles card stock and inks. I'm particularly liking the lavender lace, bashful blue and pretty in pink colours. Here is another Thank You card making use of the lavender lace. I wanted to try something out using the embossing techniques of the big shot and this was a great chance to do so.

I was in the mood to make a card that was colourful and that would give me a chance to play with the colour inks I have. I have not really had an opportunity to get to use the colours much with the cards I have made so far. I am really loving my "Darling Dots" stamp set from Stampin Up. There are so many uses for these little stamps.
