Vintage Spring

I am so ready for spring and was inspired to create these vintage spring cards. The first is for Card Patterns' Sketch 106. I used my Gina K's Lord of the Season set (topiary), Layers of Color's Sent with Love stamps. I also added some die cuts using some new Spellbinder dies: Fleur de lis Doily Motifs and Eyelet Circles. The papers are Graphic 45's Once Upon a Springtime.

The second card was for last week's Card Patterns' sketch. All supplies are by Stampin' Up!, except for the die cut border and doily (Spellbinders Floral Doily Accents and Motifs).

    Nina these are just so feminine and gorgeous - I love them both, but think that the second one appeals to me more - maybe it is 'that lace' that captivates me, or maybe the colours... ;-)

    Love the soft pinks on your Thinking of You card, and the Amour card is perfect with the lace & ribbon placement!
