Smile & Hello cards

I bought some new dies from China and so I wanted to try them out when I received them. Here are the 2 cards I made:

Materials used:

Black and white cardstock

Printed paper is from a no-brand paper pad bought in ALDI

China dies

Sue Wilson dies - Magical Butterflies

Halfpearls from my stash

Love cards

I am trying to fill up my stock of finished cards, and I am also trying to make some more simpler cards or CAS (clean and simple) as they are also referred to. I have made these two cards that could be used for Valentines Day, a wedding or an anniversary. Here is how they turned out:

Materials used:

Pink, white and silver cardstock

Paper with hearts (don't know the brand)

Spellbinders die: Matting basics 5x7

China die: Love

Sizzix embossing folder with heart

Glossy accent from Ranger
