Hello, I have two different challenges for the above cards today! First, it’s time for our weekly Just Us Girls challenge where we have a photo to inspire you. The first thing I noticed in the photo was the pussy willows. So I decided to embrace those along with the colors blue, yellow, and orange. I hope you will consider joining us!
Next, over at The Twofer Challenge, the theme is flowers. So I took the same SU floral and designed my second card. Which looks very similar to a pink and grey one I posted about ten days ago. I am in love with this new Country Home set from SU, and as I had mentioned, I made quite a few cards using that stamp and the Buffalo Check background stamp. I don’t think I am quite ready to file them away yet so beware! The sentiments are from Stampin Up. My mediums are Copics and Prisma colored pencils.

No worries, Nanc’! Keep ’em coming because they are all so incredibly gorgeous! I love this floral pussy willow image and the vibrant colors of your designs and, of course, the amazing plaids! Both designs will be treasured by the lucky recipients!! Thank you so much for playing in Twofer Card Challenge #27! Take care and keep safe. (Is it just my imagination or does your background vase in the photos go perfectly with the JUGS photo? Genius photo arrangement!) Hugs, Darnell

What a lovely way to showcase that bouquet. Very smart to make it a bookend to your sentiment. Its lovely in yellows. The lavendar shades on that sweet table cloth are so sweet. Thanks for playing along at Twofer Card Challenge.

I love both of these and can see why you are in love with that set! I love the black and white plaid paired up with the floral panel. Beautiful design stamping that image above and below the sentiment oval.

You are really cranking out the beautiful cards my friend. Each one of them is so creative and colored well. I adore both of these and how you made them look so different.

What you call pussy willows I call cat tails, Nancy, and I didn’t even notice them in the photo. You did a beautiful job coloring both images and adding the plaids.
