Happy New Year!



Hi, Friends!

Happy New Year!  I'm wishing for you a blessed happy healthy new year!

I couldn't resist purchasing the new Spellbinder's Good Fortune Horse to send out a few cards to friends and family!  I looked at some awesome inspiration over at Spellbinders from Michelle Short and another person(sorry not sure who made the black background card). The embossed background was made using an EF from Simon Says and the arch die was made using a die from Pink Fresh Studio. Anyways, I had a lot of fun making the cards!  I'm entering the first card over at Lunar New Year Challenge.

Second card...



Edit:


I decided to redo part of the above card.  It looks much better!


I almost didn't post this card due to the gold ink spray that went crazy.  Ah, mishaps in crafting.  So, I tried to make it seem less worse by adding more gold gems.  Or, I guess I could say that they are actually fireworks going off behind the horse?!  Anyways, things happen, right?

Ok, friends, that's all for now.  Take care and have a wonderful rest of the week!  Thanks so much for dropping by today!

Hugs!

  4. OH! What fabulous cards Maria. I love the embossed backgrounds and the arch to make the horse stand out. Lurve the gold too, makes them more celebratory. Thank you for your lovely comments these last few months, they have been welcomed and gratefully received. x
