Again I'm starting out with a CAS card.


I used one of the humorous sentiments from today's set.   Pink, red, and yellow -- definitely a Hawaiian shirt!

My second card is a Joy Fold card. There was lots of masking on this card -- something I really love doing.
 

That color combination always feels so retro!

I hope you have enjoyed this month's releases. They were all fun to use. Make sure you stop by all the rest of the design team's blogs and comment for the chance to win a free stamp set.     Lois (that's me),  Vicky,  Anne,  Pat G.,  Karen H.,  Patty P.,  Mary,  Marilynn,  Pam,  Debbie,  Nancy,  Bonnie,  Kathy,  Brenda,  Toni,  Tangii,  Anna S,  Sue,  Kelli,  Janine,  Mark's Finest Papers

    Love the frame on the first, but you really hit the nail on the head with your flamingo "standing out"!!! Love them.

    Like the whimsy Flamingos. Did you know that a Flamingo gets its pink color from the food it eats.
