For my first card, I've used an Inkadinkadoo stamp set, and stamped various circle images from the set onto linen card, using memento inks in 'pear tart', 'paris dusk' and 'grape jelly'. The sentiment is a CC Designs stamp.
The plane image on my second card is from a little Kaisercraft stamp set, stamped in 'tangelo' memento ink and then cut out. I've cut a circle from a scrap of MME paper, and used the 'waste' piece rather than the actual circle. Mounted this piece (raised up with foam pads) onto teal cardstock from Papermill Direct, added a CC Designs sentiment and my cut out plane. I've also added a strip of orange cardstock that I've de-bossed (totally on purpose of course lol!) with the swiss dots folder.
I'm also entering my cards for the following challenges:
- Cute Card Thursday - going round in circles
- Sweet Stampin' - one for the boys
- Totally Gorjuss - all about boys
I'm feeling a bit bah humbug at the weather today - we were supposed to be going to a family BBQ tonight, but it's been called off because of the rain. The boys are very disappointed and grumpy, especially Morgan who's been going on about it all week... think we might let him stay up and watch a film with us instead. Off to do a huge catch up session with you all now, as I don't seem to have had much blogging time over the last couple of days!

Hi Lisa
You are the second blog I have visited tonight where a BBQ has been cancelled. Such a shame.
I also feel sorry for couples getting married when it rains so heavily on a Saturday.
Two lovely cards . .. I particularly love the last one with the text paper.
Love Jules xx
Hi Lisa, two really fab cards hun. Love the bright colours and really great designs. Aww! sorry you missed the bbq, the weather always spoils things.

Love how you used circles in your two cards and such different styles. Shame about the BBQ...it dried up here at 3pm and been lovely since :)

Great cards Lisa. The second one is a perfect wee boy card. Thanks for sharing it with us at TG this week.
Know what you mean about not having time to blog. And the worst bit is I don't know what I've been doing.!

Me too with the humbug. We were supposed to go to a party and poor Sweet Cheeks caught a bug. Projectile doesn't really do it justice...!
Anyway, I really like these. Fab circles on the first, guess I'm telling you I like the stamp and the second is just perfecto. xxx
These are both great Lisa!
These are both so fab Lisa! I really love that orange and blue one!
Love these Lisa especially the first - it's got an edginess I love. The circles remind me of my first ever stamp set called Seeing Spots - I loved it! Hope you had a good evening in the end - it wasn't really BBQ weather was it?!! Vx
Two fab cards. I love the colour combo on the first and the bold colours of the second :o)

2 Fab cards Lisa -especially love the colours of the first one and love the design of the second one.
Shame about the weather - and we are in the middle of summer - if you can't plan a BBQ then - when can you!!!!!
Hope it's a better day today.
Have a good one!
