It's lovely to 'see' you again Carla, you've been sorely missed! (So have your wonderful projects)!
I love the pink and white card, but Carla!! That white on white is just to die for.

I just love Viv's play on words with the "to die for".  She's good with words. 

True Random Number Generator Min: 1 Max: 52  Result: 16 Powered by RANDOM.ORG (now, if I could only get the number generator image to post for me, anyone know how to do that, I need help.  *wink) 

I really wish everyone could of won.  I thank you so much for playing with me the past few days.  Its been fun and you've all put a smile on my face and a spring in my step!!!  I can't wait to play with some of your color combinations.  Talk about fabulous incentive. 

Viv as soon as I get your address, it'll be in mail and you have to let me know it arrived safely.

One to another project today.  I created 2 cards for Mom's birthday and had a heck of a time deciding which one to give her.  I nearly gave her both.  Here's the first one… in my favorite of colors of course.

Flowers for Mom, Monarch Punch, Scallop Border Punch, Tim Holtz Alcohol Inks, Purple and Green, Carla's Scraps (1)

The little blotchy background behind the happy birthday sentiment is Alcohol Inks on White Glossy Cardstock.  The image is a free download I got from somewhere.  If you'd like a copy, email me and I'll either send you a copy of mine or I'll find the website.  If you know the website, please let me know.

Card 2 and the one I ended up giving Mom…Mom's Birthday Card, Memory Box Tessatina Border, Mulberry Flowers, Inky Antics Potted Violets, Carla's Scraps (4)

The background Die is from Memory Box, the Tessatina Border.  The clay pot is a stamp from Inky Antics, Potted Violets from their Honey Pot Collection.  The tiny tag is SU's and the flowers are Mulberry Flowers.

Again, thank you so much for playing with me and for being so nice.  I hope you enjoyed my cards today.  Its only supposed to be 84 degree's here today, yeah!!!  I have to work, but that's okay.

Whey hey!!! I won!!! I LOVE that MB die and never imagined I'd be the one to win it! Thankyou for offering it Carla. Now, as for those two gorgeous cards.. what a hard decision. They are both SO lovely. (I'm going to HAVE to try out that lovely alcohol ink technique). Still can't choose which I love the most.

Both of your cards are so pretty, but I gave specialnotice to the second one because I have that die. I love the way you used it.

Carla, I can see why you a hard time choosing. Both of these cards are gorgeous. I like that alcohol background you created. I do love the potted floral arrangement in the second card and the strips created with the die look stunning the way you've used them.
