This week the Speedy the Cat Challenge Blog challenges us to create "using Polka Dots"...fun fun! and so easy..
Grabbed my stash designer paper (so trying to use up my old stuff before buying new...killing me but I NEED to use this stuff LOL) and used MFP's beautiful deep Evergreen cardstock with Memento Black and Ranger's Distress Peeled Paint Green ink.
Chose MFP's retired "Flourishes and Frames" set! i go to this set so often...
but since that set is retired ...
created a second card using two currently available sets.
and more retired SU dp...cardstock is MFP's Marbled Robin's Egg - so beautiful IRL
now that I'm doing my post, thinking should have sponged with distress inks and made them more vintage...oh well - never satisfied LOL
hope you get to join Speedy's Challenge - and remember, random winner receives a FREE stamp set!
have a beautiful, blessed weekend

Both are fantastic... perfect the way they are!
Linda--both of these cards are gorgeous!!! I can't pick a favorite because they are both so pretty! TFS
Both are beautiful! They don't need the distress ink. The green catches my eye right off the bat.
Both cards are lovely.
Linda they are both beautiful. I love that paper, good thing you found a way to use it. I use that retired set a lot too, it just works with so many things but i think i use the wisteria and butterflies equally as much. i love the way you two toned the flower sprig.
Well girl, you doubled the sweetness. Love both of these, the card using the retired set is so gorgeous. Love the greens and the way my eye goes straight to the beautiful sentiment. Of course butterflies are always a fave. I still love all of the retired papers from SU, but then I just love paper,lol.
Two beautiful cards- love the images you used on both cards- I cannot pick a favorite!
Linda, you know i love them both!!!You always do such a awesome job !!! I know what you mean, I'm always wanting new paper!! Hey maybe we should do a paper swap!!!LOL
Linda both of these are so beautiful!!! I am always amazed by you talent and ability to create so many lovey cards. Sorry I have been MIA lately.

Wow, these are amazing Linda. I love that butterfly on the second card. Well done on the dotting up challenge!

They are both lovely, and I especially like the sentiment on the second one!
