Last Happy Circles Card!

Here's the last card I created with the Happy2Be Circles stamp set. I think turquoise and red may be one of my favorite color combinations!


This is another digital hybrid card. This time I used Kristin Cronin-Barrow's kit These Days. I used the digital brushes for the sentiment. I also used my EK Success border punch and my Nestabilities scallop circle. The little butterfly came from Dollar Tree (of all places!). The ink is CTMH.

Another Happy Circles Card

I only shared two of my four creations from the Happy2Be Circles stamp set, so here's another one!





This is a digital hybrid card. I used Libby Weifenbach's digital kit The Bee's Knees for the papers. I used the happy and birthday digi-stamps (aka Photoshop brushes) to create the circle sentiment. Then I inked the circle edges and added some doodle stitching to the circle and yellow paper strip.

For both cards below, I used papers from Eva Kipler's digital Kit Little Big Man.
