I am sooo loving new stamps and new paper! Had a hard time deciding if this was a "baroque" card or a "word on word" card! I used the brush end of my close to cocoa marker to "dab" at the script on the happiness stamp. I think it stamps pretty well color on color, but I like the contrast.

This is gorgeous! Love the color combo and the way you combined the two sets, especially the little flowers at the ends of the word on word. Can't wait to get my mat pack so I can do pretty paper piercing like this!

Oh Wendy, this one is so yummy! I thought I had decided on my hostess set pre-order and now you come up with this awesome card. Off to look at the choices again!

So glad to see this works, I was afraid it would be hard to ink up just the saying in the middle with a deeper color and not have it bleed onto the Caps, thanks for sharing!!

Beautiful. I love the way you have used the 2 sets together and the colors are perfect.
