3 Cards, 5 Challenges ~ An Evening of Afternoon Picnic :)

Wowzers! The creative juices were flowing last evening and here are the cards I have to share with you today :) I received a package of Afternoon Picnic DSP in the mail yesterday and could not wait to crack into it and let me tell you I had no idea I would design a little collection of cards all with that DSP in mind! I will be entering these cards in quite a few challenges but each will be entered in the Addicted to Stamps & More, photo inspiration challenge :)

My first card was made using the sketch from CAS(E) this Sketch. I am also entering it in The Paper Players, CAS with Bling challenge this week!
