Little Boy Blue

     It seems like I can't get enough of the Hello You Thinlits.  This seemed like a perfect marriage, and could be made for a girl, just as easy as it was for a boy, or unisex you pick the three colors.  This is a quick card and a great technique that I say on pinterest for raising the letters.  I shared it in my card club the other night and the girls seemed to like the effect.  I hope you like the card as much as I liked making it.

Birds of a Feather

     I have a card for you that I truly thought that I would never make.  In fact when I saw this stamp set I thought it was so strange.  Well at the end of Sale-a-bration this year I literally had everything in the catalogue, so I order this as a last resort.  Well I think this happens to me more times than not that I start playing around with a stamp and come up with a card that I really like.  That is exactly what happened with this one.

Hello Thinlits

     So I am kind of crazy for the Hello Thinlit Dies.  It is almost as bad as the Circle Card Thinlit. (LOL)  So the next three cards I am going to show you all use the thinlits.  The first card that you see turned out so wonderful I just love it.  I used all of the 2014-2016 in colors to color the butterfly.  The one below it I saw on pinterest in different colors but loved the technique and just had to try it.  It is also kinda of my farewell to my favorite in-colors ever.   I just love them and will continue to use them often,  I think that is one reason I could never be a demonstrator I could not quit using a color just because it was no longer in the catalog.  The last card I saw a card on pinterest with a similar layout, I didn't have some of the things she used, and my words and color scheme is different but you know me I improvised and it really turned out better than I had imagined.  So I hope you love what you see and find some inspiration for yourself.
