For my first card I created my background using the Pattern2Love stamp from The {Stamps} of Life. Although you can't tell too well with this picture, I did add some true blue stickles onto my pattern and my tabs were created out of paper. I love this color combination!

For my second card I only used a small strip of patterned paper using the same stamp set as above. This was a new color combination for me to use the purples and the turquoise together but I think it's one of my favorites right now.

I love your colors and the little bling shines through beautifully. Great job!
Love the BG, looks wonderful on the Kraft as well as the lighter panel! The added stickles make the kraft panel pop!
COOL background paper girl. I am never really good at lining up large stamps but I think I will try this on for size today. Love the little girl card too....
Have a wonderful weekend.

These are great cards. I love the background pattern you used and purple and turquoise is a favorite combination of mine.
Love the patterned paper you made, Kim. The Stickles are a fabulous accent for it.
Wow I love it! Great sentiment too :)
You have created 2 lovely cards and I love your background. Gorgeous colour combination... need to try that one. It is amazing how we all came up with such different things!
Beautiful stickly blue background. The tabs are a nice design touch. Lovely color combination on both cards!
Both these cards are really nice. I love the pattern on the 1st card and the sparkle is really a great touch.
