Triple Time Leaves

I have definitely worn out this triple time stamping technique. This card is similar to a previous post using this french foliage set, only it was on white background with a fancier ribbon :)

This also is a card for the Hayden library class. I am going to have quite a few beginners, and this is an easy but stunning technique to teach.

ink: cajun craze, always artichoke, soft suede, melon mambo
cardstock: white, sahara sand, brown for matting (not SU)

Birthday Drive By

This card is for my sweet son's 22nd birthday. I don't know why after all these years, it is still hard for me to come up with a "mancard". It was so tempting for me to add ribbon but I exercised self-control :)

I used the retired loads of love set for the truck, and the birthday sentiment is from happiest birthday wishes.  I used the square lattice embossing folder after stamping the wood grain. Colors used: crumb cake, basic gray, baja breeze, whisper white.
