Speedy Fox & Friends challenge~~Blue & Green

This week's Speedy Fox & Friends challenge is to make a blue & green card.  I choose to use the stamp set "Black Eyed Susans for Encouragement" for the image and "Silly Shells" for the sentiment.  You can't tell it from the photo, but I colored the center of each black eyed Susan with Smooch gold.  In real life they are very pretty.

More Little Notes

Here's a few more of the little gift enclosure cards that I made a few weeks ago.  I think they are so cute!  I used the stamp set called "Scenic Selections" from Mark's Finest Papers, a Heinrich Co.  This set is so versatile!  Love it!  First, I cut the base CS 2" x 4" and scored it at 2".  I stamped the image on Snow Storm Smooth, punched it out with a large scallop circle punch, then sponged around the scallops to make them "pop:.

Stamps:  Scenic Selections
Paper:  Snow Storm Smooth, lucky limeade, marina mist, vintage violet, bashful blue
Ink:  lucky limeade, marina mist, vintage violet, bashful blue
Misc:  pop dots, scallop circle punch

Thanks for stopping by today.  I hope you will try these little gift enclosures!  They are so much fun to make!
