Just a Quick Post

I'm up to my elbows in Gelatos, creating up a storm for my upcoming classes at Stamp Fever, so I'll keep this post really short and hopefully sweet.



This was the first card I've ever submitted for publication. It didn't make the cut but I'm pretty happy with the experience and plan to keep submitting cards, you never know!

Here's another all-purpose birthday card:



This one was also not selected but it makes me smile. Hopefully it will bring a smile to the recipient!

blessings everyone, have a wonderful weekend!

  11. I love your cards. I can't see why they wouldn't have been chosen. How did you make the yellow floral card?
