These cards are a little out of my normal realm. I included a lot of paper piecing, punching, gluing, layering. The inspiration comes from a wonderful women who owns the Stampin Station (a/k/a Purple Daisy Designs), a stamping store in Pennsylvania. They make their own stamps on site and I love to look at her designs. I thank her so much for all her inspiration. Not sure what colors I used for the punching as I punch a lot of scraps, put them in the box, and select something I need as I go along. TFL

The lattice style card is one of several styles (also window, hexagon, circle) carried by the Stampin Station (a/k/a The Purple Daisy). This is a stamping store owned by a Menonite couple in Greencastle, PA. I live about 110 miles from there so I don't get there often but I love to go now and then. They carry some name brands -- EK Success, Marvy Uchida, etc. but there are all sorts of stamps they design and make on site. They also have some stamps that have a matching punch (love these because there is less cutting). They do not have a website, only telephone and fax and a small, simple catalog. They also go to several of the conventions on the East Coast.

Really really pretty. One of the die cut companies [CB Sizzix etc] needs to take a good look at this. You may see my card that you inspired in my gallery. Not nearly as pretty as yours but fun to do!
