Friendly Gnomes sending happy thoughts

 Today I have a Friendly Gnomes card for you.  I really loved the gnomes we had in the July-December 2022 mini catalog, but alas they were retired.....oh wait, now we have a new gnome stamp set called Friendly Gnomes.  I tried a design style a little outside my comfort zone, but I do like how it turned out.  To see how I put this card together, you can watch the replay over on my YouTube channel HERE:

Adorable Owls Rays of Light

 Today’s card was the first card I envisioned when I saw this set.  I love how it turned out and can be used for any occasion just by changing the sentiment and using different owl from the set.  It features the adorable owls, along with Rays of Light and Framed Florets.  The color pallet, along with the images make for very timing card in my opinion.  To see how I put this card together, watch the video replay over on my YouTube channel HERE:
