These are two really beautiful cards! Both sets of colors work really well. You are an amazing designer with a perfect eye for color and balance! TFS and Happy Independence Day!
Beautiful cards. Have you found any scrapbook stores over there on the island? It would be fun to see what kinds of stuff they have.
Very pretty! Thanks for playing at 2S4Y!

Hi Girls! I hope you all having a great weekend. My vacation is flying by soooo fast. Thanks for stopping by & leaving some love :) Shana, I e-mailed my cyber girlfriend, HawaiiRenee, asking for a scrapbook store referral & she said there isn't any scrapbooking stores here on Maui :( She relies on the internet & Honolulu! Hugs, Mona
So cute Mona! Love that bronze book plate - what a perfect embellishment!
Mona, both of these cards are gorgeous! Perfect paper, perfect hardware, perfect flowers and amazing design!
Ps: I almost forgot, hope you and the DH had a wonderful fourth in paradise!
Beautiful cards mona! Great designs!
Love these cards! You are just crankin' these beauties out! Hawaii must stimulate your creative juices!
Mirna, you are right! Hawaii has a tendency to do that to people!!!!!!!!!!!! Being surrounded by beauty beings it out in people!
Way to go on these cards! They are so pretty! I just love your style; its right up my alley!
These cards are perfect! I love everything about them! So Graceful!
Hello Girlfriends :) Thanks so much for leaving me nice words! They mean so much. This will make you chuckle-I brought along my 8yr old Sizzix Sidekick (perfect for traveling), while I was trying to crank a Spellbinders die through, I jammed it & broke the darn thing :( I have purchased several models since, but I am going to have to replace that with a 50% off coupon purchase :) It makes for a great travel scrappin' companion :) Hugs, Mona
Sorry to hear about your Sidekick! Sounds like you've gotten a lot of use out of it! Also, these cards are very pretty as usual! I would die to have your eye for design and creativity! Isn't there some potion I can drink or something? Help!!!!
These are beautiful cards and great impromptu photography! You are so resourceful!
Thank you so much for leaving a sweet comment!
