Catching Up....Part 1

Here are a few cards I made some time ago.  They have been on my phone and are just now making it to the computer for me to share!  All of these are one layer cards using a variety of stamps.  Hope you enjoy them!

The first two are done with Memento inks and stamp sets by Stampendous.  The sentiments are from Wordsworth sets.

For this card, I masked off the bottom and used one of my background stamps inked with more than one color of the Memento inks to create the top. 

For the next two cards, I stamped and embossed the saying in white and played around with some watercolors to create backgrounds.  The first one got a little muddy, but the second one turned out much better!  Will definitely have to try this technique again!

The next three cards I used the same one layer format, but instead of using Memento inks for the background, I used my Twinkling H20 paints.  I then used some Versafine ink to over stamp the other images. They have such a nice shimmer.  The photos don't do them justice!
