This next bright and wonderful colorful card is entered by Tracey Kuzniak at My World of Cards, Scrapbooking, and Triathlons. She used Cover-A-CardTM Doodle Flowers to create a few of her favorite things!!!
The card below is shared by Lynda Benden, at Stamp Act. She used Holiday Birdhouses!! Love the way you did the ribbon and that wonderful punched edge too!
Look at this wonderful card shared by Pamela. She chose Petal Pear to show one of her favorite things. Very vibrant images and the punched corners are perfect to bring out the birds nests too.
This lovely card is shared by Stephanie Severin at Ingenious Inkling. She used Dream Butterfly to create some of her favorite things, butterflies and the country. The rose is a perfect embellishment to bring out the image and the background too!
Next we have a really wonderful card from Stephanie Lee. Among her favorite things is her actual collection of real antique baby carriages (not stamps). Here she uses Baby Carriage to create her very vintage card. The image also comes in a Red Rubber Cling set, Baby Carriage, or clear stamp set Baby.
This card was designed by Vicki Garrett at Summer Tyme Studio. She used A Star Is Born. A really beautiful color combination and it looks so pretty and whimsical too! She has a lot in common with people loving building snowmen!
Our last card for this post is from Deloris Thiede, Stamping At The Lake. One of her favorite things are Peonies and here she uses Peony to create her beautiful card.
On to an additional treat from Vicki Garrett, at Summer Tyme Studio. She chose Goldie On Ornament to create this cute and wonderful Christmas wish card. No argument that Goldie really is adorable and look at Santa's hat!!
The next card is from Catherine St.Clair at Paper Garden Projects. She chose to use Mittens, Cover-A-CardTM SnowFlake, and clear stamp set Sentiments I to create her Winter masterpiece. The colors are so warm and yummy and those mittens so pretty and bright! Look at that great background behind the image too!
Take a look at this warm and wonderful card shared by Katie Bondroff. One of her favorite things is nature and for her background she chose he used Cover-A-CardTM stamps Distressed Denim, Wood Grain, and Scratches. Then she created a hole in her beautiful wood to house her adorable Gary Robertson Owl! Owls always look so soft and wise to me.
