A Repeat Performance and a Dino-Rak Winner

Good morning!

I've been on a card making whirlwind these last few days.

Last night I was in my cozy little studio until after 2 a.m creating cards for requests

some are new designs...

and some are repeat performances.

At around 1 a.m...

I realized that I had forgotten to post the winner of the little Dino-Mite Rak

So let me do that first...

and then I'll show you a few cards...

Congratulations!

and a cute little trio of dinosaurs will be on their way to you this week! 

And now...

for the "repeat performances"

If you follow my blog...

the cards that that I am sharing today will be familiar to you...

because I created a 2 cards with both of these dies...

a few weeks ago.

They were gone in a flash when I put them in my etsy shop...

and now I've been asked to create a few more..

in assorted colors...

Card making friends...

I'll tell you the supply info for key supplies right now...

as opposed to at the end of the blog...

The list is very short...

Ellen Hutson Essentials.... Bed of Roses Die

Penny Black....Camellia Die

Card Stock: LCI Metallic (for the underlay)

and

Stampin Up for the overlay

and that's it!

So now...

here are the cards...

just a few of what I created last night...

The request for this card was for an assortment of colors

with "Happy Mother's Day" stamped inside.

I went with soft tones...

a very pale pink...

 with a shimmery ivory metallic underlay

 and a soft yellow...

again...with the ivory metallic underlay

a pretty lavender...

with a light shimmery lavender  metallic underlay...

As I always say when I use this metallic cards stock...I wish that it photographed better

so that you could appreciate the soft shimmer

and finally...

the boldest of the 4 card colors...

this beautiful turquoise-like blue...

I love the contrast between the brightness of the die cut overlay 

and the shimmery ivory  underlay

So...now for the BIG question...
Do you have a favorite?
Which color did you like best?

I have a strong suspicion that there will be many more "repeat performances" of this card

in the future...

The dies are great to work with...

they cut beautifully...

and create a beautiful card....

every time. 

I hope that love enjoyed seeing a splash os Springtime color here at my blog...
