CARDS 2010 January Publications

Hello all! Thought I would share a few cards that were published in the January edition of CARDS magazine...The detail on these Spring Rain buttons looks a lot like tire tread, which made them a perfect match for this bicycle image from Everyday Button Bits. Wouldn't you say?! I made this card back when my Polka Dot Basics II set was brand new and I used it on just about everything.
Here is a card I have never posted on my blog before. Those adorable hot air balloons and the embossed sentiment are from Everyday Button Bits. Again with the Polka Dot Basics II, this time they are embossed.
This is my favorite out of the bunch, this card was pretty much the card that started my In Bloom craze. I still love that set! I really like the way the Background Basics: Retro image looks stamped in Dark Chocolate Ink on Kraft.
This one was a fun one to create. Doesn't the cupcake topping (from Cupcake Collection), heat embossed in white, look so yummy! Again, gotta love those embossed Polka Dot Basics II.

Thanks for visiting today!
