 Jen Leeflang created this adorable Christmas theme card with a lovely image from artist Tam Hess.  Isn't her coloring stunning?  This image is called Winter Fox.   That sentiment is too cute.

  

Darlene Pavlick created this gorgeous two tone card.  I just LOVE this color combination, did you notice both papers she chose have stripes on them?  She is using a brand new image from artist Fawn Palmer. This image is called Hurt Bunny.  This sweet image comes with the sentiment shown and one additional saying.

 

Tammy Hair created this get well card using a new stamp from artist Fawn Palmer. This lovely image is called Hurt Bunny.  Can you tell what the stripes are? Yep, it's done with gauze bandages.  How cool is that?

 



And lastly, I (Holley Barnhart from Holley's Blog) used this adorable image from Squigglefly artist Sandra Caldwell.  This cutie is called Raggedy El and Ellie.  There's both stripes in my image, as well as on my card base.
