Two great cards Donna! The soft, subtle colors and design on the first card is so elegant, especially with the touches of gold. The second card is ready to party! Yeehaa!!
ReplyDeleteBoth cards are gorgeous and you are so creative to show off two ways to use up the papers we all have. Subtle and Bold showing off two different looks and style. I love them both.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fabulous post showing off both types of cards with the subtle and the bold, both so creatively beautiful, a great use of your papers, I think we need more patterned paper challenges lol!!
ReplyDeleteWOW! Look at you go ... both cards are simply awesome! Thanks for always sharing such amazing inspiration!
ReplyDeleteWonderful cards, Donna! The subtle is very elegant and the bold is so fun. Great use of your patterned papers!
ReplyDeleteThey're both just wonderful and show your design skills beautifully! I love the soft and pretty first card with the die cuts and bit of stamping. And then the bold colors and patterns of the second card are just the ticket for a fun and celebratory happy birthday. My Mind's Eye has always been some of my favorite papers and I still have a bunch of them. Those polka dots look familiar...
ReplyDeleteWell aren't you the fancy one, doing 2 different looks. The soft subtle one is so pretty, love that spray of leaves with the gold twine and circle cut out to show the paper beneath. And then that bright one, I think it's my favorite. I do have that circle birthday die, you used it perfectly here. And then of course the stitching. Thanks for the inspiration!!!
ReplyDeleteLove them both, wonderful design on the first card, and such a fun card for the second, love the polka dots for a birthday and the cupcake is so cute, great framed by the sentiment!
