Tami's newest set is so sweet and so much fun!!! I really love everything about it, both the images and sentiments are great!! I wanted to try to make this lightbulb look as close to real as I could, I was a bit stumped but then I got the idea to add glossy accents!
We have another great set from Becky! One thing I love about this set, depending on the ink colors you use, it looks like a whole different set!! I am really in love with the large image, it is so versitle! Because I chose American Quality, I had to use stars! :)
It was so hard to choose which images to use from Beth's set!! Yep, you guessed it, I truly love them all, really! :) So I took a different approach than what I normally do, I decided on colors first. I really wanted to use my white ink and haven't used purple in a card for a while. I decided on Sandy beach as my neutral. In the middle of the flowers I used white Liquid Pearls to help the butterflies stand out a bit more. I don't think you can see it too well in the photo but I stamped the little "Hi" with Versamark randomly in the top area above the ribbon.
