Seize the Day

Morning!!
Today I needed some Sun so I did these two cards.
I just love the Sunny look of these very similar cards.  I used the CTMH stamp set called"Something Splendid" (D-1424), it's a double stamping technique that I used Honey and Sunny Yellow inks. Some thinks I did the same on each like the layout and sayings, also I used Swiss Dots folder on the white background on both, the same border on both, ribbon color but there's a few little changes that I'll explain down further.  


 On this one I backed the flower with a lite green and just sponged the edges with black, I also used Butterscotch and Espresso dimensional Pearls on the center of the flower. On the Swiss Dots background was sponged with Citrus Leaf.  And then I did a Bow on this one. 

Now the difference on this one is I put Black behind the flower and the Swiss Dots instead of just sponging.  I also did the crinkle ribbon thing with No bow.
Even thow these are little changes it really makes a difference.

this is the inside.  I showed the top so you could see how I did the ribbon to hid the seam from the black, I did that on both.  and used the same saying on the inside.

LOVE this saying by SU... In fact love the whole set called "Favorite Thoughts" there cute but sassy too....


This is a shot of all the STUFF I used,,,,I think...
I might add this kind of pic for each post... don't know if you like seeing this or not so let me know.
That's it for today!!  Think I'll do something different again... this one was fun and made me feel good, and that's what we should be doing, Right?  Do what makes us feel good!
PS:  Finished my Tree, almost finished decorating the house... Yea!!!!!!!

Thanks for stopping by again!
Hope you Enjoyed!!
