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!

    These are all beautiful, Hayley! I think the one with the three butterflies looks incredible, such pretty colours and how you have given them dimension. Fabulous use of the sketches too. Thank you for joining us at ATSM.
