In addition to checking out all of the newest stamps and products on our trip, we also spent a fair amount of time digging through bins of used stamps and clearance items. I was thrilled to find these fun Greenhouse adhesive chipboard icons on clearance, since I already had the coordinating paper at home in my stash. I seldom spend money on pre-made embellishments, so it was fun to use them to pull together some quick and easy cards.
The first card uses Laura's Sketch 31 from 2 Sketches 4 You. I added a chipboard letter and number to finish the sentiment. The border punch along the side is from Martha Stewart & I used my Creative Memories cutter for the oval.
This one is for Julee's Mojo Monday Sketch #97. No stamping on this one either ... just a couple of cardstock circles.
So quick, easy, and fun. Don't forget the shower-themed challenge at Caardvarks ... there's a very fun card kit from Creative Cuts & More up for grabs.
very cute cards!

Love your cards; although I have to admit the colors of "Be Kind" do really appeal to me. Isn't it great to get a bargain out of the bins? I love digging through to, bit of a treasure hunt!
