First Up I have a card I made from Under the Sea! I've always loved fish and many years ago we had a fish tank. I sure wish we had room for one now, they are so calming. I'm not too good at creating scenes but this set makes it so easy and fun!!
Next up is my card for Enjoy the Journey! Another super fun set!! Typically I don't send cards when I know someone is going on vacation but wouldn't it be fun to surprise someone with one?! But this set can be used for so many other things, graduation, moving, congratulations, and on and on and on!! I just love this image and it was a lot of fun to color and cut out!!
Check out all the amazing designs and inspiration:

ReplyDeleteWow! These are both stunning cards.
ReplyDeleteAmazing cards! I was having a hard time envisioning how I would use the Journey set as I don't know many retiring and I don't think to give a card when someone goes one vacation but you ladies sure do make a girl rethink her stand! And yes, I think it would be fun to get a card celebrating my vacation!

I love the shading on the fish. Very realistic!
ReplyDeleteLori, I love the embossing on both cards and the soft look of the Under the Sea card. Everything is so soft looking and then you have the boldness of the clown fish. And I think your Enjoy the Journey is the nicest one I seen so far! So different than the others.
