NEW ATC Designs - What do you think?

Yesterday I finally gave in and turned my hand to ATC cards. I really enjoy making cards and thought it was about time I tried something new! These are very addictive so will definitely will be making more.....

As you can see my favourite colours are still brown, old olive & white - somethings never change -but I thought they worked well with the toppers I found at the bottom of my craft draw.

New Birthday Card Design - Stampin Up!, Gallery

I have been having so much fun with my new Stampin Up! stamps!!!!! My favourite colour combo at the minute is brown. old olive & white - not summery I know but very elegant......

Here is my latest card made using the Stampin Up! Whimsical Words stamp. I also love using the cuttlebug dots embossing folder which is great for so many projects.

Cheers
