Greeting Cards for July


Bonnie brought this card design to our workshop and we all made a card from her kits. She said it was difficult to fit the squares on an A2 card.  I think she did it--and the colors are lively.


Bonnie's other design was a lovely color combination with lacey doilies and butterflies.  Even the background was embossed with butterflies.  Can't wait to send it to a niece for her birthday in July.


Carol's design used a floral border stamp that we colored with markers, some honeycomb yellow patteerned paper and a great ribbon.  I used Bonnie's bee stamp for some action.



I brought a design with two variations on a similar theme. I used the Rosie Posie stamps from Papertrey Ink and stamped directly on the patterned paper as shown in the most current Make It Monday from the same company.  I added a bee stamp and the turned up corner for some dimension.


My other design used more masculine colors to go with the brown grosgrain ribbon.  The flourishes were stamped directly on the patterned paper.  The sentiment was stamped with a flourish on the embossed oval die-cut.

We all have different styles, but together we make a great group and a wonderful bunch of cards.
