I used the Color Hues for my daughter's birthday card
For some reason, this was really hard to get a decent photo of. Stamped and embossed diagonal stripes and gingham with yellow ep on gray cardstock. Stamped the polka dot strip and heat embossed again with yellow ep and layered onto a yellow strip. Stamped the flowers in Slate Gray on yellow and used Touch Twin markers for a little shading and yellow Stickles for the flower centers. Added the little happy birthday strip and layered onto a yellow card base.
And then playing along with Twofer Card Challenge - Leaves
Using my fairly new Gingko Leaves from Unity stamped once on the sympathy card and created a background stamping several times on the hello card. Colored with Prismacolor pencils and gamsol.
The sympathy card also has some tone on tone leaves for a subtle background.
Thanks for taking the time to take a closer look!

I love your gingko leaves, Sue! They are so pretty in the blue-green all framed up with the tone on tone leaves! Love the brilliant green stamped all over! Wonderful shading on both cards! Thanks for sharing with us at The Twofer Challenge!
Gingko leaves are some of my favorite for stamped images, Sue, and I love this set from Unity. It looks fabulous in tone-on-tone as the background and foreground of your sympathy card and in beautiful greens all over your hello card! Thank you for playing in TCC #37! Hugs, Darnell
Beautiful, Sue ... your choice of gingko leaves is a lovely one! The sympathy card with the tone on tone background and delicate blues is calm and serene ... and the all over fresh green leaves on the hello card are just delicious ... the black sentiment pops wonderfully against them! Thanks so much for playing along with us at Twofer! Anita :)
What a beautiful stamp. I love the muted tones and the way you've used the stamp as a background too. The green card is fresh and 'gorgeous'. lol. Alison, Twofer GD
Love your mix of papers on your birthday card Sue and your other cards for Twofer our fabulous too. I have seen those leaves and have always admired them. Thanks for playing along at Color Hues and I hope you have a great week! Take care!
