New Stamp Sets

I got a new Stampin Up stamp set, Thoughts and Prayers, and had not been able to play with it yet so I got it out this weekend and tried a few cards.
This card was made using:
Card Stock: Sahara Sand, Taken With Teal, Very Vanilla
Ink: Chocolate Chip, Taken with Teal
Tools : Piercing Tool and mat set

This one uses Orchid Opulence, Very Vanilla, and Elegant Eggplant card stock. Elegant Eggplant ink and grosgrain ribbon.

This one uses Very Vanilla and Rose Red card stock, Rose Red and Garden Green ink.

I thought they all turned out pretty good. I think I am going to like this stamp set a lot!

The tree and the floral branch are from the same stamp set. I love them too. I'll be using it a lot:-)

Nice... I really like this set, too. Another fun idea. stamp the flower vine on sahara sand or going gray using navy, eggplant or burgndy ink and then color in the flowers with white gel pen. Very pretty.
I like the way you used partial images of stamps to add to your card!

Jane - the white gel pen idea sounds neat. Might have to use that one for SU Club in March. I think we are going to do the one with the vine and flowers. I was never big on using markers to color the stamp but it worked really well - I think I like it!
