TCM April Preview Day 2


Welcome back to The Craft's Meow April release previews!  It's day 2 and we're showcasing a beautiful new stamp set called Inspired by Audrey illustrated by our newest stamp illustrator Karen Baker!  It's all about Audrey Hepburn and includes several lovely sentiments and other classy design elements.  My first card was made using one of the sentiments along with a butterfly from  the Beautiful Spring stamp set.   I made it using this month's TCM sketch challenge:


Card Details (4.25 x 5.5)
Stamps: Beautiful Spring; Inspired by Audrey (TCM)
Ink: PaperTrey ink colored; Versafine black

Card stock: SU; PTI
Other: lace; doily; May Arts ribbon; MFT ribbon tails die; Want2Scrap pearls





*********


My next card uses the beautiful frame that Karen included in her stamp set - all the sentiments fit perfectly inside it.  I think this sentiment is my very favorite of all in the stamp set.  I just love it!  I tried to go elegant with this card - lace, flowers, glittered damask patterned papers... very fun elements together!

Card Details (4.25 x 5.5)
Ink: Tsukeniko Versafine black; Versamagic chalk
Card stock: DCWV Linen Stack
Other: Lace; May Arts ribbon; Wild Orchid flowers; corner rounder
Please check out all the other designers' projects featured over on The Craft's Meow store blog.  I know you'll be inspired and get lots of great ideas on today's lovely stamp set!



See you tomorrow for Day 3 previews!

These cards are just beautiful! Love your trim combinations, and how the stamps really stand out against the neutrals in the first card, and I just love that paper from the second!

Jessica the top card keeps me coming back again and again to look at it - it is such gorgeous eye candy. I like the second one, but the top one is the winner in my books.

I was looking around & found your blog. It must have meant to be. I just got back from Rockford where my niece is fighting for her life. We are staying hopeful for a complete recovery for her. I think your cards are beautiful and just what I needed at this time. God bless you:)
