A few new cards

I'd taken a break from card making after the market in the park and focused on painting, but this weekend my stamping supplies were calling me. I made some simple cards, most of them variations on the themes below: 

The colors on this seem a bit off on my monitor. The reds should be rich, almost burgundy. 

I did a series of cards in burgundy and gray on white cardstock, but my scanner wasn't picking up the boundaries of the cards, only the colored images in the center. Very weird effect. I'll try to get them re-scanned and add them here.

Okay, here they are. The colors are charcoal gray, burgundy, and crisp white. I never work with white cardstock, so this a change for me. Once again, I liked how clean the designs are. Paper and stamps below are from Stampin' Up.

All your card designs are just wonderful, V. The first two in particular are beautiful.

Love the leaf motif. I recently l purchased Paris and bird stamps to add to my collection. I relate to your attraction to these projects. While working with paper and ink and stamps and words, an afternoon flies by.

Where do you get the time, my friend?

Thanks RD.

Kim, I'd love to see some of your work. Post some photos on your Facebook page!

Apathy Lounge, Mostly I make cards on weekends when the Man is busy with his favorite past time, gardening, and the kids are tied up with friends. I don't watch television or football games or any of that, so I'm more likely to wander into my studio and fiddle around in the evenings.

You got The Eye, Girl. You got The Eye! And that's 99% of the "battle," which is not really a battle at all of course, is it? it's all fun and games in artistry.
