Another hard challenge for me this week! First it was the "soft" colors and now you could only use stamp pads for coloring! I could deal with the 4 or less layers, but not using my sponge or re-inkers was the real challenge! But, I didn't cave in. Everything you see is done with stamps and stamp pads.....except for the cutting out and gluing on.
I cased myself from a card I made a long time ago, before I knew of SCS. My sister has the original, unless of course she has sold it by now!!! LOL Just kidding. Contrary to what you might have read, my sister keeps all the cards I send her......at least I think she does!? LOL Just kidding again!
Anyway, not much to explain here, so I won't try......TFL :0)

You've had a hell of a week Cathy with these challenges (you might have noticed that I avoided most of them tee he) but such beautiful creations you've come up with! The colours are stunning on those gorgeous flowers, I love the background and your trademark little stamp. FABULOUS! I hope Connie Jo hasn't sold the original, I'll gladly buy it from her lol! Pm you over the weekend.

Will you look at that Chris using the word hell! Can u believe that! And yes, you'd better check the status of the original card you used to case yourself. I just wonder where it really is now after everything that's been thrown around ... funny, it all seems to come out in your comments area. Now what do you make of that? CJ, you'd better go get that card back- you'd got a real buyer over there in England. She's dying to get her hands on it. Mutnik, you've gone and done it again. Stepped outside that little world of yours and created a marvelous card! See, you can do this! I love what youve created today: Love that soft bg and those flowers ... wow. Maybe CJ will want this one too for the dog's vet when she goes to see her next year. Fab card

WOW! Just gorgeous!! I love the colors! What a great way to use that set, and the swirls add SO MUCH, too. Great border, and love all the different textures!!

Awesome. Love the colors and the background is so light and beautiful. Love the square stamp --- which you are making for your slightly older sister. At my age, I am having difficulty remembering this card you sent me. Now I on a mission to find it too. TFS.
hugs,
connie jo

Great combination of stamps. Love that soft flannel plaid BG with the bright flowers. And I'm nominating you for the patience award for creating that awesome border...very cute. TFS
