Designer Series Paper Cards

Here's some simple cards using designer series paper....the last one is the card I gave my hubby for Valentine's Day :)

You Float My Boat!

I love this stamp set but I gotta tell, I'm not happy with this card...I had such high hopes for this card but I just think it's missing something! Oh well.... One thing about this card that I had fun with was the masking technique for the heart in the little boat. I've done reverse masking before but this was the first time playing with regular masking. I enjoyed it and look forward to trying it again on other cards.

Elegant Notes Buckle Card

Yeah! I've finally used this Stamp Set! I bought this set because my husband and sister-in-law love music, play music, ARE music... :) And finally this set has seen the ink pads!
