Lots of Thanks

Today I have several thank you cards to share. I am afraid I succumbed to some more online craft shopping in recent weeks. I have always liked Concord & 9th products and fell for their August release. At the same time I bought the new Catherine Pooler mini ink set, such gorgeous colours.
Here is what I have made so far:

Card 1

After I took the first photo, I decided to try a few gems, hence the addition on the second photo.

Card 2
As you can see, I bought the dies too!

The background for the die cut leaf was a gel print done some time ago that I found in my stash.

Card 3


I have used the triple step stamps on this one.

Card 4
I think these colours are my favourite - hot tub, sage and lemongrass



I am sharing card 1 at:

Oh, my word, I would have fallen for this bundle, too! I especially love the leaf with all the cut outs. You have some beautiful results with your new things. I do love all the colors. When I was on Instagram I was shopping way too much, but now I don't keep up with everything new. I suppose it's just as well.

Amazing work with your new bundle of products, Hilary! What a gorgeous large leaf die and so wonderful that it comes with more dies and stamps that fit in the center. LOVE, LOVE, your new ink colours. Agree ... the last colour combo is my fav too! Great work, my friend! xx
