Great Card Making Day For Me!

Hey there friends!

Hope you've all had a fantastic week.  I've had the busiest week I've had  in a very long time - appointments every single day except for YESTERDAY!!  Sooooooo, what's a girl to do when she has a free day..........why STAMP of course! lol

In case you don't already know, my cards are available for purchase over at Aussie Cards For Sale.  I work along side a heap of talented ladies, each with their own stamping style and we make cards for all occassions - it's really fun and I love being a part of the group!  Anyhow, things have been going so well over there lately and cards are selling like hotcakes for all of us, so I thought I'd better get busy and make some more!

Sometimes my brain does gets fried trying to think of new ideas, but luckily for me, my VERY talented friend Gretchen has given me permission to CASE any of her card ideas (with a bit of a Karen tweak of course!) to use for selling.  THANK YOU GRETCHEN!

These are 2 of  the 4 cards I got made today!  YES I said 4!!  You can thank Gretchen for that! lol 


Then I made the card again, this time using the original colours that Gretchen had done her card in. and I just switched the sentiments!  I decided to add that cute little doily strip to both of my cards because I was dying to try out my new Martha Stewart Punch!  Gosh its pretty!!


They are both such simple little cards, but  I really love them!  Many thanks again to Gretchen because without her..............I don't think I would have gotten 1 card finished yesterday let alone 4! lol

Have a great weekend - catch you next week!

Love these Karen! The doily punch is so pretty. I wouldn't ever have thought to put purple and red together but it looks fab! Must give it a try!

Oh I am loving that punch! And Gretchen! Red & purple is my fave combo here too - I have a friend who loves the two colours and so I've used together before and it really is quite striking.
