This is the first card I made

I embossed Violet card with butterflies and flowers which was a free embossing folder with Australian Only Cards.  Printed the first digi from Outlawz and coloured it with markers.  Layered onto green card, added butterfly brad and attached to violet card.  The scanner doesn't scan the colours properly, they look more blue in the scan.

I printed out the stamp for card 2 last week but haven't finished it yet.  Will finish it tomorrow.

Card 2:  I embossed yellow card with spots and added spotted ribbon.  Printed out Sassy Studio Designs digi "Smurfette" and coloured her with distress markers:  hat -Salty ocean, hair - scatterd straw, dress - shaded lilac and stormy sky, shoes - stormy sky.  Skin with copic marker.

Sassy Studio Designs very kindly gave us each a digi stamp to use and I picked Strawberry Shortcake.  I already had bought Smurfette so I made two cards.
