I could not wait for these stamp, stencil and die sets to arrive and I wasted no time trying them out. The pink buildings and aqua water were inspired by the Baha Mar Hotel in the Bahamas as well as the Don CeSar Hotel in St. Pete Beach, Florida.
I am playing along with the As You See It Fill in the Blank Challenge #370, "Besides Christmas, I mail more _____ cards than any other." For me that kind of card is encouragement. The kind of card I am talking about says Hello, Just Because, Hugs, Thinking of you, Miss you, Wishing you a nice day, to friends far away. They are happy, surprise cards. That's how I chose the sentiment for my card here.
- Concord & 9th Seaside stencil pack, dies and stamp set, Ink pad
- Ranger Distress ink pads
- Stampin' Up! Classic ink pads
- Altenew Obsidian black in pad
It took a while to learn how to use the dies for the first time, but it was still fun to make this scene. I can't wait to make more versions with these products!
Hope you're having a good week,
Carol

WOW! So much to love here! First of all, I think the reason you send cards is just the best reason there is. Secondly, I love these bright, summery colours. Finally, this is such a great scene - even in the thumbnail the depth of perspective is impressive. Thanks for sharing with us at As You See It. :-)

Carol, you've charmed us all! I love the cobblestone road, the white picket fence and the black and white striped awning that enhance the pink brick boutique hotels. What is not to like? I need a vacation! Thanks for filling in the blank for us at As You See It Challenges.
