Finally, a few pics

from my new camera. I am still learning how to use it and need to read the book completely and figure out all of the things I can do with it. (I really need to learn this before I go to CHA). These are the cards for my upcoming class. One of my new favorite stamp sets is Boho Blossoms from My Favorite Things and you can get them here. On this first card I embossed the flower in detail gold powder directly onto the print paper. This paper has a shimmer to it and it is gorgeous. The base card is brown shimmer cardstock and the print papers are from SEI. I embellished with some pale pink dew drops. It is hard to tell, but the shear ribbon has a little gold edge. Here is a close up of the flower/dew drops. The next card uses the open heart image from the set and I used World Win cardstock for the base and K & Co. Smitten paper for the background. I used Pink VersaColor ink for the flower and embossed with clear EP. I flower is stamped on cream glossy cardstock as I thought it really went great with the print on the paper. Now, this last card is my oh so favorite! I stamped the solid flower image with Black Brilliance ink and embossed with black EP. The base card is Bazzill Black cardstock and the print papers are from K & Co.'s Mira collection. I used Adirondack Mountain Rose ink to stamp the little design directly onto the print paper. The solid cardstock is from World Win and the color is called Geranium. It goes perfectly with the print paper. I embellished with some brads and a little yellow rhinestone in the center of the flower for some extra bling. Well, I am off to work (we're doing inventory) for the evening. I hope to upload a few more cards tomorrow.

Hugs to all!
