Two lovely cards Kathy. I especially like the first one. Great use of your T-Square.
Have a good weekend. xxx
What a great way to use a smaller stamp - your design is wonderful. I must try and remember this!
Love your first card too another fab CAS design. (2007 seems fairly new to me lol!).
Thanks for sharing with us at Allsorts challenge.

The PA silhouette flowers are very pretty Kathy, and another great background making the stripes cross to give that plaid type look and such super colour, and a sweet hedgie image on the second and the masked circle around it with the little bit of blended ink and then the added sun rays makes your eye go straight to it. So prettily coloured and love that beautiful green matted layer. x
Such beautifully done CAS cards! The hedgie is so cute, thank you so much for sharing this week at Allsorts challenge!
