Nina B Stamp - Vintage Rides

I picked out the paper first and then colored the image to match (It is hard to see in the photo, but some of arrows on the background paper are blue).  I colored one car in blue and then decided to try another color combo.  I couldn't decide which one I liked better, so I posted both!!

Cardstock: blue is by Papertrey Ink and the orange is from Hobby Lobby, the black is Wausau Paper

Wild Love Card

This card took on a life of it's own.  (No pun intended.)  I had a completely different idea in mind for this, but I like this better.    The cardstock is by PaperTrey Ink (Autumn Rose) and the ink is Tim Holtz Distress ink (Victorian Velvet).   Aren't they perfect together?

I got the idea for this sentiment from a card I saw on Operation Write Home's website.   They had made it an anniversary card, I thought it could work for anything.
