Gorgeous, Gorgeous cards, Nichol. I love them both!!!
Super cute projects!
These are gorgeous!
Thast bottle card has washed up with sea glass, it’s so pretty! And the beach house…I want to spend time there. It’s so bright.
You used one of the sets I really like: Sippable Scenes. Such a fun set and you used a really unique background. The Coastal Paradise card is crazy good with all the details you have. Looks like a shaker card, but it is not. You must have had fun making that one-even though it involved a number of steps.
Now I need a beach house!!! Great cards with amazing backgrounds!!!
I love watching your videos, so inspirational. Your cards for this release are gorgeous and so creative how you made the background, and the colors are perfect.
These cards are so amazing
Wow, beautiful cards. Love the colors and love the pattern made by the way you lined up the Postage Stamp dies!
I LOVE both your cards! The shaker is amazing, and the design for the Message in a Bottle is just wonderful!

Oh my gosh! I adore the ships in bottles. They are so cute and small. But then I have a thing for ships in bottles, soooooo…..and then the beach houses in a landscape sort of scene–really adorable. I’m in love with your creations!
What fun ideas in your cards. Love the idea of glossy accents to make the bottles look like glass. That takes some patience!
