I know you are going to ask. Nope . . . she doesn't have a blog (yet). However, Sharon Wendling, one of my Stampin' Pretty Pals, proves creativity is alive and well beyond the virtual stamping world! She sent me these two cards for my Pals Guest Stamper spot and asked me to make a choice. It was simple. I picked BOTH.
Her style is fresh and pretty with just the right amount of embellishing. I love the touch of sponging on Crumb Cake (butterfly) on the top card. Clever touches like the rounded corners (above) and the ticket corner punches (below) add zip without going over the top.
Stamp Sets (top card): Bliss (W121851, C123217) and Thank You Kindly (123936). NOTE: Both these stamp sets can be earned FREE during Stampin' Up! Sale-A-Bration. Offer ends 3/31.
Stamp Sets (second card): A Slice of Life (Occasions Mini Hostess Level 1: W121895, C121952), Teeny Tiny Wishes (W115370)

No wonder you couldn’t decide which one card to post, they are both beautiful. Especially love the butterfly card with the rounded corners (I always forget to use that punch) and the pearl accents. They just finish the card off so very nicely!
I will definitely be casing Sharon’s butterfly card for an upcoming workshop. THANKS SHARON!
Very Nice! Love Sharon’s style and neat little punched touches with the corners on the various layers. Cool!!!
Hi Nancy –
Donna in Phoenix so kindly answered your question (above). The paper is Greenhouse Gala.

These are beautiful cards, I love the rounded corners. Well done, Sharon!
Great cards from Sharon for sure. I think it’s getting VERY close to time for a blog. 😉
Mary, thanks for sharing! Sharon, your cards are so pretty! Love your choice of colors and how you use the DSP – great job!
