Wild Daffodil Melon ...

... the colors for The Paper Players challenge this week.  They look beautiful together and make for an awesome card.

I thought I would do something different for this card.  I randomly opened up the catalog and picked a stamp set that was on that page and started creating.  I knew I wanted to try a layout that I saw on one Gina K.'s video.  The inky fingers had a great time making this ...

Another simple card that is ready to be mailed.  I see so many gorgeous cards out there with wonderful flowers and embellishments and I always wonder how are they mailed?  The majority of my cards that are made, I put in A2 envelopes.  My question to all you great bloggers ... how do you mail your embellished masterpieces?

I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend.  I'm heading out to lunch and shopping with my best friend ... great start to the weekend!

Have a great day,

I love to color but cutting is not my thing.  I keep thinking I will get better with practice but i think I'm a hopeless cause.  Thanks for stopping by and I love reading your comments.  That is what makes my day!  Have a safe and wonderful weekend.
