Bloom 100 Proof Press Stamp Challenge

I've been trying to hold a Facebook contest every other month for 100 Proof Press.  I'd like to think that slowly but surely I'll get more and more participants.  Right now the theme is "Bloom."  I made a quick card following the same idea as the last one.  I love the sprout stamp, and I think the green looks nice with the pink flowers.

I'm not so crazy about the "LOVE" there, but I feel like it was needed.  I again used the idea of taking photos as it progresses, so the second card  is the final card - I went back at outlined the heart a little bit.  And I think I like the final one better....  If you happen to stamp, and have some 100 Proof Press Stamps, you should stamp something blooming and share it on the Facebook page!  Have a happy day... SPRING is here tomorrow!

Bird Party - WISH

I feel like sometimes when I'm working on something, it looks, OK but then the next thing you know I take it a step too far.  Like I'll have a collage arranged in a way I kind of like, but then I go and find something else, stick it on the project and well, kind of ruin it.  So I've devised a plan (we'll see how long I keep up with it) to  take a photograph at the different steps, that way at least I have a version I'm OK with to share.  I made a simple card  but, then couldn't decide if it needed a sentiment, or more color... so here's three versions of the card.  I actually think I like the end result best - that usually doesn't happen.  What do you think?

So we'll see. Yeah, the final product is the one that has grown on me.
