Here it is, Friday already and the last day of this month's hop. My first card with today's set, Small Flowers, is a clean and simple, one-layer card.
The masked strip was sponged with Ranger Distress Tumbled Glass and Bundled Sage, my go-to colors for landscapes. Small Flowers is a mini set with no sentiments, so I used one of the sentiments from another MFP Stamp Shop set, Be Happy.
My second card is part of a set.
I made the bag using a pattern I had purchased several years ago. My 84-year old neighbor is having a rough time at the moment. Her husband is in a rehab center, and she's been going back and forth almost every day to visit with him. I thought she needed a lift, so I bought her a cupcake at the local Publix Super Market bakery. On the card I used a scrap from the 12" x 18" piece of heavyweight paper from which the bag is made.
I hope you've gotten some inspiration from my projects this week. Now it's time to visit the blogs of the rest of the team. Hopefully, you'll get some inspiration from everyone this month. Be sure to comment so you increase your chances of winning a free MFP Stamp Shop stamp set.

Both beautiful projects Lois! I love the sponged band across the first. The colors are lovely!
Love both of your cards so pretty!
Your cards are all lovely. The first one is my fav with the pretty blue flower.
The first card is stunning! I applaud you for making a single layer card...that is so hard for me to do. Second bag and card is charming with that decorative paper.
