One Set I got was Garden Whimsy. I love it. It is so easy to work with and looks great when stamped. It inked up really nice to for being more of a solid image. That surprised me. I did get to make one card tonight with it.
This card started with a Bayou Blue base. I wasn’t sure I would like the Bayou Blue, but it really is beautiful IRL. I also used Purely Pomegranate and Groovy Guava. I distressed the edges of each layer. I used the Whimsy Wheel stamped in Soft Sky. The butterflies are in Pomegranate and Groovy Guava. I also added Diamond Stickles to the wings. The stitched ribbon is in Groovy Guava.
I hope to start my Chirstmas Cards this weekend. I am so excited to use my new SU! sets! I am almost all mounted!
