Same Cards, Different Colors

I made this gift set a while ago. It was fun to make. I challenged myself to use the same stamps but different colors to make a gift set!! And check out those awesome Maya Road clear flowers beside each of the sentiments. I sponged some of the matching ink on them and let them dry! I think it looks so cool how the darker sentiment shows through behind them.
Supplies: Stamps- Beautiful Blossoms, Out ona Limb, Borders and Corders {rectangles}; Paper- Whisper White, Soft Sky, Wild Wasabi, Groovy Guava, Blue Bayou (Stampin' Up!); Ink-Soft Sky, Lavender Lace, Groovy Guava, River Rock, Chocolate Chip, Purely Pomegranet, Wild Wasabi, Blue Bayou, Bordering Blue, Close to Cocoa (all Stampin Up!), Other - Scallop rectangles (my friend Robin lent me her Marvy Scallop punch last summer!), various buttons, clear flowers (Maya Road), hemp, sponge, double stitched ribbons (all Stampin' Up!).
Thanks for dropping in !!

Very pretty, Donelda! I have some of those ghost shapes (flowers, stars, etc) from Heidi Swapp. Couldn't remember where I had seen them used, but I believe it was you. Thanks for the reminder. :) Kel
