Saying Goodbye & Saying Hello!

Good Morning Stampers....
I've been up for hours.... the fibro pain in my arms and legs awoke me early and there was nothing to it but to get up! This week has been a difficult one for this - guess you could call this "the thorn in my side".

Today I wanted to give you a couple more peeks at 2 retiring sets - and then a peek at some new colors!
This first set is called "A Flower For All Seasons" - it has been around quite a while and I am sad to see it go. It has 4 images ... one for each season - here are 2 cards I made a while ago using this set.

This next set is named "Happy Together" - it is a fun little whimiscal set! Here a 2 cards I made with this set ....

This next card is one we made at our Kreations Klub Night ... using a fold that has been around for a while but seems to have been resurrected in the past few weeks. I remember making 3 of these folded cards and adhering them together to make a mini scrapbook... haven't done that for a while! This card is made by folding an 8X8 inch piece of CS in half; turn and fold in half again; then make a diagonal fold. We used 3 of the new In Colors: Calypso Coral, Lucky Limeade, Wisteria Wonder; and a piece of DSP from "Cheerful Treat". The ribbon is tied when the card is closed... I didn't tie the bow for the picture :(

                                                             Untied -

                                                      Fully open -

Thanks for stopping by today -

Blessings and Hugs!
