Sweet Cards from Friends!

Here are some wonderful cards I've received from friends.  They made my day, and I hope they make you smile, too!

First up is a card I received from my dear and talented friend Connie.  She used the Reason to Smile stamp set with 3 of the new In Colors (Midnight Muse, Gumball Green, and Summer Starfruit -- a great combo!) to make this beauty:

Very classy!!!

The next two cards are from my sweet and talented friend Marlene.  This card is shaped like the canning jar from the Perfectly Preserved set, but is a bit bigger.  Marlene used the Friendship Preserves set to make the label, and Comfort Cafe Designer Series Paper tied with Early Espresso Baker's Twine for the "fabric" covering the lid.

So very clever!  And, here is a fun fall window card from Marlene:

It looks like Marlene used the Woodgrain Embossing Folder with the new Early Espresso Core'dinations Card Stock for the front panel.   The leaf on the inside is cut with the Autumn Accents Bigz Die and embossed with the Spider Web Folder.  The fun fall paper in the background is the Orchard Harvest Designer Series Paper.

Thanks so much for stopping by!
