Good morning friend! Thank you for stopping by today. Yesterday I wasn't feeling my craftiest and when that happens I alway find that caseing someones work usually brings it right back. Now, what's funny is that everytime that happens I usually look to Maile Belles to inspire me and she did! I decided to get out Four of A Kind (CHA special edition) and play with it and Maile's lovely card here did the trick. Her simply yet eye-catching style really gets me thinking outside the box and I am always picking my jaw up off the laptop keys when I see her work. So, thank you Maile for being so inspirational to me! I was so on a roll that I decided to challenge myself to make 5 cards from this stamp set, all of which you will be seeing in the coming days! I was amazed with what I could create with just a few images and some paper and ink! Try it sometime, it really gets your mojo flowing. Well, that's it for me! Have a great day!

ReplyDeleteLindsay, I really really like this set and your card! I can't wait to use it in other colors! I love how you added buttons over the centers....we must have been thinking the same thing because I was going to sit down today and make a few more with this set!! Great minds think alike!
