This first card features the new stamp set, Make a Cake, and the Distressed Dots and Curly Cute stamp sets!! It also features the new In-Color Gumball Green. This is such a fun, new color!! Finally, we used the new Apothecary Accents Framelits dies to highlight the cake from the Make a Cake set and the Finishing Touches Edgelits Die to highlight the Happy Birthday sentiment. I love this cute, simple card!! This idea came from the Lady-n-the-Stamp blog. Love her cards!!

This second card features the new stamp set, Everything Eleanor. We received this stamp set at Leadership back in January! I was glad to find some time to finally play with it!! I also used my new Color Coach for the new 2012-14 In Colors - it gave me the suggestion to pair the colors Basic Gray, Primrose Petals and Summer Starfruit. I'm sure I would not have come up with the color combo on my own, but I really like it!! I think I'm really going to appreciate those color coach cards!!

I also used the new Fancy Fan Embossing folder on the Primrose Petals piece - what fun that new folder is!! You can't see it too well in this photo.... But the last new item on this card is the Vintage Faceted Designer Buttons. You have to check those out in person - my picture-taking abilities do NOT do those justice!!
