I am loving framelits

I am continuing to have a good time with SU! framelits. They add so many options to card making. Today I am sharing three of the cards I made last week. 

I normally don't mix Very Vanilla and Wicker White, but I like it on the first card.

Thanks for stopping by for a look see.

Preserved Just for You

I like cards with moveable parts and I just couldn't resist doing one for this card. The jar and lid just call to me for a brad to open and close the lid. I am enjoying the stamp and framelit bundles that will be available in a few days from the holiday catalog. I actually stamped the jar AFTER I cut the jar out with the framelit.

Clockworks & SWAPS

I just put together my Clockworks stamp set and had to use it today. I think this will be a go to set for me because it is so versatile.

I also want to share more of the cards I got for the 100 card swap that Cricket Thompson coordinated. This card is the creation of Katherine Anderson.

This lovely card was created by Lisa Lange.

I'm Back

I am back from the most marvelous vacation. I was in France, Spain, and Portugal on a pilgrimage tour with friends old and new. It was a wonderful two week trip that has enriched my life. The picture below is of  me and the two friends who encouraged me to join them on the trip.

I am the one in the back, Bev is on the left and Colleen is on the right. We are on the plane at DFW getting ready to fly to Paris. I will share some other photos as time goes on.

Just before I left I made 100 cards for a card swap that was coordinated by Cricket Thompson. When I returned home I had a notice the package of return swaps was waiting at the post office. My DH went and picked up the package today. I am thrilled with all the wonderful cards and want to share some of them with you.

This is the card Cricket Thompson shared with all of us.
