French Foliage

I was playing with the French Foliage stamp set and thought I would share a couple cards I made with it.  The colors on each are similar - Crumb Cake, Soft Suede, Old Olive, More Mustard, Cajun Craze and Very Vanilla.  The bottom card also uses Early Espresso.
 This one turned into a quick and easy one layer card and then I just added a little bit of mustard ribbon and a vintage trinket.

Skinny Skittles

I purchased some 1 x 8 skinny bags without really knowing exactly what I was going to do with them.  After some thought I decided to use a few of them as preschool Halloween treats and make a super easy Skittle treat.  I think it took about twice as long to stuff the bags with the candy as it did to finish the projects.

Perk Up!

This one is for the Just Add Ink challenge this week of "Just add blue". 
I used Marina Mist, Bashful Blue and Pacific Point as my colors and Morning Cup is the stamp set.

From our house to yours

This is my card for Mary Jo's sketch this week.  I used the To you and Yours stamp set, the circle scissors plus, and the Big Shot with the Northern Flurry and Petals a Plenty Impressions folders.  I sponged Early Espresso on the card base and impression and then used the Old Olive ink pad directly on the base and the two pieces of Very Vanilla to add some more color.

Guitar Birthday

Here is another Grunge Rock sample, this time with Marina Mist, Old Olive, Soft Suede and Very Vanilla.  I used the Perfect Polka Dots impressions folder and basic rhinestones to add some texture and bling to this one.
I can see myself using this set a lot for scrapbooking in the future too.
