Welcome! It's good to have you stop by on your way around the Wacky Watercooler Blog Hop. If you came here from Stephanie Pletscher's blog, didn't she have some great projects? Are you enjoying your chance to see a sneak peak at the 2014 Holiday Catalog? You'll be able to order from the new catalog come August 28th. You are going to love it all!
For my first card, I went with a summer theme. School has started here and summer is winding down. It won't be long and the leaves will be changing and the weatherman is going to start talking about snow. I thought some pretty flowers would remind us that summer is not over and we still have time to enjoy the pretty flowers.

Great work! Love your cards!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Stephanie! I appreciate your kind comment.
DeleteI love your work, Marsha! Thank you for being a part of this blog hop!!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Terri. I really enjoy our blog hops.
DeleteLove that you did a flower card too! It is hard this time of year to be thinking Christmas - but it's not that far away.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Gail. Being on the Christmas Card Challenges Design Team, I have to make a Christmas card each week. It was nice to make a flower card.
DeleteWonderful cards, Marsha! I love the line-up of little trees :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Deb. That stamp set also has a line of ornaments that is really cute, too. Can't wait to make something with it.
DeleteThanks so much for hopping with us I enjoyed your projects.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Kath. I do enjoy our blog hops.
DeleteThanks for being part of our Blog Hop, Marsha. Speak for yourself about summer not being over. It's supposed to go down to 39 degrees Fahrenheit tonight. AND I had to wear a coat today. *sigh* But I'll take your summer flowers to heart and wish for warmer weather. How did I not see the Christmas Bliss set in the catalogue? Love the simplicity of the card. And, of course, love the cardinal.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Heidi. Given we are having 90+ degree temps, I was wishful thinking cooler weather. It's like living in the Tropics here at the moment. Christmas Bliss isn't in the Holiday Catalog but I sure wish it was so it would be easier to find. :-)
DeleteBeautiful cards, Marsha, and what great variety - something for everyone!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Kathe. I appreciate your comment.
DeleteI think you did a super job colouring the cardinal. Wonderful.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Bev. I'm a bit rusty on the coloring but plan to do more now that I remember how fun it is. :-)
