Daphne's Ride and My Big News!

Whoo Hoo!  I can finally share my secret with you!  I am a Sweet November Gal!  Each month, along with Amy Young (the talented artist of Sweet November Stamps), and Nancy Thomas (cardmaker extraordinaire), I'll be designing cards to showcase the Sweet November stamp release.  I've admired the skill and creativity of both of these ladies for several years, and I'm thrilled to be a part of the team!  Thank you Amy! 

On to today's card and the first of four May 2013 Sweet November Stamps, Daphne's Ride.  Fairwee Daphne looks positively giddy to be hitching a ride on her winged friend.  So, what better background than this brightly colored, happy Paper Studio paper entitled Fun Bugs?  The bugs on the paper look nearly as happy as Daphne!  Btw, you're getting a "twofer" today.  I couldn't decide on color choices for the image, so I colored two and made them both into cards.




Please stop by Amy's blog, A Thousand Sheets of Paper, and Nancy's blog, Creative Palette, to view their cards using Daphne's Ride.  This stamp along with the rest of the May release will be available at the All That Scraps Shop on May 6th.

    luv your work, my choice is the second one.... the first one to me feels a wee bit dizzy with the circle line over the perpendicular lines....but that's just me with my bifocals...
    "DEE"-lighted with your coice of papers and embellishments.

    Hi Tress. Congratulations on being part of Amy's wonderful designers. Amy is such a sweetheart, and like you I love seeing what she is coloring up. :O) I think that both of your cards are just adorable, and I love how you have shown off their wings with the glitter effect. Just too cute for words. It is so nice to meet you and I am sure I will be stalking your blog from now on. Hugs, Lisa G

    So glad to have you on the team Tress, you are an amazing talent! :)
