Hello Again

Welcome to Monday, friends!  This is the last of the Hello & Thanks cards for now.  I colored a whole batch of these stamped images while we were camping in July, so I feel I've given the set a good share of attention.  When it came time to put this one together I kept it very clean and simple.




A blush of color on the card base.  Pearl steam rising from the cup.




Fall stamping has begun in earnest --  Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas...  I'll see you again soon.  Take care!

You definitely have a knack for stamping. I'm not good at it at all. I love the sweet little cup and the steam coming out is adorable. Well done!

The pearl flourish really makes a statement on this card. I love that you kept this a one layer card that is simple and let yourcoloring shine. The plue flower really pops surrounded by the pink and bits of yellow.

I love the way you used the flowers with the cup, your coloring of that cup, looks like one of those metal cups, can't think of the name right now, the softness you added to the background is a pretty touch! The pearl steam just tops it off nicely!

Greta said...

Oh how very pretty, this is a great stamp set and such pretty colors, too! Did I see Oregon had some snow? Or is that further north of you? I hope not as I know you have all those beautiful flowers!!

Gosh Leslie, this is so pretty! You could use this image for so many occasions. I love the way you designed your card, beautiful coloured flowers and cup, the bit of warm glow sponged in the background and the string of pearls for the steam. Delightful! Just back from vacation, trying to get caught up on my blog reading. Have a great weekend Leslie, off to see your latest post.
