How are all of you today? My week is so very busy, but I thought I'd pop in with a couple of quick and easy cards I made recently. They helped reduce my scrap pile, and stamps that needed a little lovin' got some play time.
First, a masculine thank you card:
The 'guy' cards are always my biggest challenge, but I'm happy with the way this turned out.
Next up: a couple of cards with pre-made bases by K & Co.
Both of these incorporate bits and pieces I found in my soap boxes, so putting them together was a breeze.
I dumped the contents of those soap boxes onto the table, sorted through, grabbed colors I thought might match the card bases, and started arranging.
Thanks a lot for joining me today! Hope your day is a beautiful one. :-)

Super pretty cards, Colleen. These are nice to have in case you need one right away!
They might be quick and easy but they pack a punch, love these.
Love your cards!!
Love your quick and easy cards, very nice and great way to use the bits and pieces. I too love to organize things, sort and separate and find containers for each category. I use the little candy cello bags to store punch and die cuts. There are times, while cleaning up my work space I just punch small shapes from the scraps left from that day and store them with the larger paper scraps by color. It make me crazy when I go to ACMoores and they have the clearance sale bins...I want to ask for a chair and a large table so I can sort them. OCD I guess. Hugs Carole
Your quick and easy cards are so divine and beautiful! Classy and elegant like you!
I am loving both these cards my friend. Simply beautiful.
