******************************
I am in LOVE with Melanie & Tami’s sets!  Here is a card I made with Melanie’s set, A Year of Flowers 2 and Beth’s Lots of Dots set.


I colored the flower in with copics, fussy cut it and then popped it up on dimensionals.  Clean & Simple and probably one of my most favorite cards I have ever made!
Next up is a card I made using Tami’s set, All Occasion Tags 2 with A Year of Flowers 2 as the background!

The versatility of both of these sets is amazing!
I love how Melanie’s set can be used as the focal image of a card or as the background.  And look how sharp Tami’s tag looks stamped in GKD Red Hot, cut out and popped up on dimensionals?  Both of these sets together make for an easy, elegant card!
And one last card with just Melanie’s set…yes, I realize i’ve used the same image from her set on all 3 cards.  All of the flowers are fantastic in her set…this one just speaks to me.  ;)

I always color on white cardstock and decided to try out coloring on kraft for a change.  This card is just  GKD Kraft cardstock, the image & sentiment from Melanie’s set and GKD red hot ribbon.

Another simple, easy card!

Hope you liked what you saw here and hope you enjoy all of the other creations in our hop today!  Don’t forget to comment along they way!

    Hi Deb. I really love your Diva sets. If you ever think about it I would love to see like a runner girl Diva. That would be cool.
