If you want to start from the beginning you can see the prize that's up for grabs and get all the details here at Mary's Blog! Now.. let's get started! :)
I cut a few grape vines from gold foil paper to tie in with the wine and cheese image. Gold is always so rich!
The pretty scallop border along the bottom of my card is from Pretty Pink Posh Stitched Borders 3. Did you know Serendipity stocks Pretty Pink Posh dies? They compliment the images beautifully and you can find them here.
For my second card I colored up this sweet little cowgirl. The image came out a few months back but Mary has just added the cutest little sentiment to the store! They just belong together don't you think?
A few trims like the peek of brown stitched border (Pretty Pink Posh Stitched Borders 4), Twinery Espresso Twine and a sprinkle of wood sequins complete my card.

Jeanne the first card is gorgeous uncolored with the wonderful patterned paper and layers, now I need that stamp! Love the sweet second card , that stamp so reminds me of my granddaughters! Beautiful cards, no suprise!
I never noticed the wood sequins, glad you pointed them out! The cards are great, you put a lot of (art) work into them and it shows!
Little cowgirl is just too cute.
Two great ones. Love the naked look to the first one.. and the second.. wow your coloring was just great..
what great cards. Love the background you used with the welcome - such a unique and perfect look. Darling little cowgirl.
Wonderful cards. I like your choice of papers and your coloring on the second one.
Leaving the wine set uncolored is a great idea.
The background paper really sets it off.
I have that little cowgirl - glad to get
ideas on coloring her.
thanks for sharing.
Love both cards for different reasons -- one is more plain, the other full of well-thought-out details.
Jeanne, your cards are both amazing! I love how you keep coming up with new ideas all the time! I love the wine card idea!
Take care!
Michele
Awesome cards. Perfect paper choices. TFS
You couldn't have picked a better background for your first card!! And that little cowgirl is precious!!
Wonderful cards! Love the wood sequins on the first! Love the bright colors on the second! Thanks for sharing.
Love both of these, Jeanne. You always show off stamps and papers so well.
Wonderful cards. Your coloring on the little cowgirl is fantastic.
The colors and pattern of the paper on your first card are perfect for the image. And the little cowgirl is such a cutie. Fabulous papers on this one too!
I love that cowgirl Jeanne and I see what you mean about the sentiment with the little bit of rope .. just perfect, and the simply stamped topper with the lovely bright bp works wonderfully. x
Love the rustic background papers with the wine and cheese card! The cowgirl is one of my favorite stamps; so adorable!
