S1804 Colour Your Life
I have created a couple of very different cards from this stamp set to show you. 
This first card is to send to someone who I think is brave.  Someone who has overcome obstacles, had a rough trot, been through some hard times. Wouldn't it be nice to show someone that they should celebrate their own courage and that you think they are amazing!


I used Blossom cardstock to make a 4"x7" card base and used the Scallop border punch on one of the 7" sides to make the card front. This punch is now retired but you could use the Scallop border thin cuts instead. I used the pink gingham zip strip and floral paper from our Gimme Some Sugar paper pack. Gold shimmer trim and Bashful Pearls add some bling. Celebrate is stamped in Juniper ink and Courage is stamped in Memento ink and coloured with ShinHan markers.

On the inside I added a 0.5" strip of the Juniper spot paper. I then added a white mat 3.25x6.75" that I had stamped with the arrow, leaves and hand drawn the border. The orange flower was fussy cut from the floral paper. When the card is closed you can see the green spot paper under the pink scallop edge.



The next card I have to show was made for a friend's husband who did me a big favour and I wanted to show my appreciation. On the inside I stamped "Thank You".  This card was made using papers from the Basic Fundamentals pack and a bit of Juniper. I am told he loved his card!
