Like the title says my cards are fun, fast and a little whimsical! This was a great challenge to-day to just let your imagination run away with you. These cards are headed to the local Nursing Home in the hopes that they will make someone smile or even laugh out loud... or maybe just make them feel good. The key is keep it simple! I punched the flowers with the SU punch then folded paper and cut a leaf shape and punch 3/4" circle for centre. Glue down then use the sharpie to make doodle outlines around the flower and leaf and add a stem...Voila!! The corner is scored and the dots made with a dressmaker's wheel.

That sentiment on the right top is wonderful - I really like the style of it. And I love the way you doodled the outlines round the DP, so that it looks like 2-step stamping only it's patterned paper instead of stamped ink. I bet you had fun making these, I certainly enjoyed looking at them and seeing what you had done differently on each one.

What cute cards you've made. Love that it's going to a nursing home. Sometimes residents do feel forgotten.

This is a lovely set of cards! I really like the doodling around your petals and leaves. It really grounds the flowers. Great sentiments too as Sabrina said. What nice cards for residents to receive.
