My first time using Wasi Tape making this card "From all of us" Card

HI Stampers,

So I though on my Next card i would do something a little different and I thought to myself, Why not use wasi tape! I have not used it before so it is a little different for me and a little out of my box, I am kinda liking the look of this card with the wasi tape in the back ground, what do you all think?

Hi Stampers!
This Winter Wonderland cards was Inspired by a Post I saw on Pinterest and Just had to make this card with my girlfriend today! We used several techniques to create this fabulous card, including, masking,sponging,partial stamp embossing to make this beautiful card. This card certainly wasn't the easiest card I have ever made that's for sure but well worth the time and effort to end up with such a beautiful card.

Live Life Cards

                                                     "Live Life Cards"

Hi Stampers!
Well this afternoon I though I would play with some spray inks and back ground stamps in these tow cards I just posted and it was the first time I used this stamp set and I have had it a while, I guess i haven't used it because I wasn't sure what to do with this stamp set. Well today I decided to use it and instead of using the eggs stamp in the bird nests i thought that id use butterflies instead for something different. I really like the way these two cards came out! What do you think?
