Simply Soft Thank You

I had some time after finishing my Christmas card project for this year to make a couple of other cards.  This one is to replenish my thank you card stash.  I love the color combo of the ocean-like tones of Island Indigo, Pool Party, and Soft Sky.  I used SU markers to color in the image.  This card fits with this week's Flutterby Wednesday 218.

Simply In My Thoughts

The SU retirement list is up and I realized that I have some stamps that are retiring that have not seen ink yet.  I wanted to make a card for one of the ladies at my Waterlilyz table who is going through some very difficult trials.  I used the Simply Soft set and a few 2010-2012 In Colors that are retiring.  I used SCS Sketch Challenge 382 and the color combo I came up with on my own.  The flowers were colored with SU markers.  You can find the SU retirement lists here and if you would like to purchase these products before they go you can connect to my online store here.
