Good Morning! Yesterday morning I went into my stamp room to clean it up, what a mess it was!! As usual, I was putting away a few pieces of dsp and thought, you know if I want to buy more of this stuff I really have to start using up what I own.....so, my cleaning session quickly became a card making session!!! I loved this dsp when I first saw it in the catalogue but wasn't that inspired with it once I received it. I just didn't like the vanilla and red designs, I tend to gravitate more to red and crisp white. However, after working with the green palette in this collection, I decided I really liked it!! Garden Green, Old Olive and Vanilla are really quite beautiful together. I loved the grey ribbon touch on the card above, that was my DD's idea and I have to say I really like the greens with the grey and vanilla, subtle and so pretty.
Thanks for dropping by and I hope your Tuesday is great!!
Deb

This is totally awesome! All I have left is green in that paper... you've inspired me to use it!
Very sweet, and good way to use up that retiring paper....to get more!
I know exactly what you mean about all the dsp laying around collecting dust!
Great cards, almost puts me a Christmas mood, but don't tell my husband, lol.
These are both great Christmas cards Debbie - I love that cute snowman! I have been trying to use up my stash of dsp as well, getting through it piece by piece!
These are lovely! Funny, I am cleaning up my craft room today, and I just finished a card too. I hope I can be as productive as you. Great cards, Deb :)
