Spot Light on Nature

 



I recently got a new  stamp set from Stampin Up:  Spotlight on
Nature and the die set to go with it.  Above are two of
the cards I made with it so far - several more stamped and
cut out, ready to go.  I liked the basket weave embossing
and the sparkle on the first one, and really like the vellum
circle on the second. I am waiting to put a sentiment on 
the first one until I am ready to send it.

A few fun challenges:
Card 1:
Can You Handle the Pressure: August 10 ATG with twist of wheels 8/22 
Triple B: 9/1 

Card 2:
Die Cut Diva'a: Dry embossing  9/4
Simon Says Stamp Wednesday:  Add a sentiment  8/21

Those are 2 really pretty cards you made with your new goodies. I love those die-cut circles and especially the basket weave embossing.

Wow, these card are gorgeous Donna! I especially like the blend of colors you've got on the images along with that basket weave background! The second one is so pretty too with that vellum circle and popped up butterfly!

I agree with you, Donna! I love that basket weave e/f and how you used the vellum on the second card. That is a great circle die and such a pretty flower and butterfly stamp ~ beautifully colored! Thank you for inspiring everyone to use their NBUS! Hugs, Darnell

Both of these cards are beautiful. The first is my favorite with the pink and yellow colors. It is always fun to create with our new products.
