Templates

There is another blog out there that gives ideas for card templates, then people make cards that fit the template and email them in to whoever it is that manages the blog. The blog is CPS (Card Positioning Systems - not sure who came up with that name). Some of the templates I feel only so so about - but this one I wanted to give a try so I did 2 cards for CPS#9 (not that I sent them in - but I still did them).

This one uses some of my favorite designer series paper - Petals & Paisley (in the current Spring mini). I used stamps from two different stamp sets - Springtime Stems (a current hostess set) and All-Year Cheer II (retiring at the end of June and 20% off until the end of April).

Then I pulled out some of my paper that I have that retired a year ago. It may be retired - but I still love it!

The stamp set used in this one is Eat Cake (love it). The colors in this one are so bright - sometimes I don't think about how fun bright colors are until after I put them all together.
I hope to have more time and chances to stamp this next week than I did last week - my husband and I adopted a puppy a week ago and he is a lot of work! Happy Stamping!
