Happy New Year


Hope you all had a wonderful holiday.. Mine was relaxing and gave me time to regroup.  I don't have anything new for you today but wanted to show you two of my favorite cards this year.. This first one is from Flourishes using the Humming Along set.  This is such a great set and reminds me of spring.  

This second card is one of Mo's images called Strawberry Girl.  I love stamping and coloring on Kraft.  It is my favorite paper.  She is such a sweet image.  I created both of these for the Dirty Dozen.  This month we were to use a faux technique.  I used faux chocolate on her purse.  

I will be back to creating this week.. I want to get my my stamping area all cleaned out.. and ready for the new year.. Thanks again to all of you that have given me so much encouragement these past few months..
