Wow! Lovely cards!!!
ReplyDeleteThese are such wonderful, colorful cards! My favorites are the oldies. The Houses image is one of my favorites, and it looks great here. Thank you for sharing these.
ReplyDeleteLove the colors that Shirley used. I cased her card with the line drawing with a watercolor splattered background instead of coloring the image. I kind of got carried away with my splatters. I think I need some lessons from Shirley on getting the right amount.
ReplyDeleteGORGEOUS, SPECTACULAR cards! I especially LOVE the dress form ones! Just so sweet! Just so much fun!
