VCMP Challenge #4

Since it's a Virtual Card Making Party for the Fourth of July, it just seems natural to make a birthday card in red, white, & blue.  It's a fun challenge, Lori, and here's my card:

 I used a set from Papertrey Ink called Butterfly Kisses, an oldie but goodie!

Thanks for taking a look!

VCMP Challenge #2

The Virtual Card Making Party (VCMP) at Operation Write Home (OWH) has so many great challenges-- I hope to take on as many as I can!  

This challenge was to make a thank you card using spray inks.  

Here's my card:

I stamped, flicked, and spritzed the spots of color around the embossed sentiment-- so much fun!

All supplies from Papertrey Ink, except for Zing embossing powder in rouge.

Thanks for looking!
