Hi Sandee,
Beautiful cards! Love the heart one.
Two amazing cards! Love the doilies on #1, so adorable. And the texture on the 2nd one...really liked that. I've just started to experiment with gelatoes, and will have to remember this technique. Colors were wonderful with the gold, and your charm...great finishing touch. TFS
I love your heart card. I'm going to have to research that letter press technique.
Your cards are always gorgeous and inspiring!! I LOVE that you were able to take the sketch and use it for a card! All of the details are fabulous!!!
