Hallo,Well despite blogger it looks like the Gina K CSS blog hop is still on for today :).
Looks like I am first of the list this time-aaakkkk :) This time we are following an awesome sketch from our own Melissa Cash. I rarely do circle cards but they are fun when I do :)
Make sure to leave comments on the way because on tuesday am (may 17th) one lucky commenter will win a free stamp set (up to a value of 24.95)
For my first card I used 'The Journey' by Asela and 'A year of borders' by Melanie. I colored the seashells and background with prismacolor pencils and the main image of the kids with copics.For the next 2 cards I used the 'Heirloom Ornaments' and 'Winter Mittens' both by Nina. I embossed the ornament in gold on one and red sparkle embossing powder on the other. The snowflakes are embossed with white. The background is red glimmer mist with gold glimmer mist over the top.
Ok all for me - now on to see the very talented SHARRI - www.istamp4u.blogspot.com/2011/05/gina-ks-may-css-alumni-hop.html
Take Care
Off to work for me tonight!!!!

Wonderful cards Tera!
I like your cards. Thanks for sharing.
Your cards are beautiful. LOVE the beach scene! :)
These are all beautiful, but I have to say I love the beach scene in particular--we've had enough winter in Québec!
These are so pretty. Inspiration to create out of the box with circles!
Who said you didn't rock circle cards? Not me. Yours are great. The embossing adds so much to the Cristmas cards. Thanks
I Lurve the beach scene card the most. As we have said goodbye to summer in these parts of the world and are now dealing with colds I can just picture myself warming my toes on that beach...ho hum
I think it's all been said, but this is beautiful!
OMGosh, I just saw the last card and the first one is such a work of art!! You really have such talent!
