Circle Circus Day

I decided to pick a stamp set an play.  Here are a couple of the cards I made and I'll post the others tomorrow.  I chose the stamp set Circle Circus.  Maybe because my head is spinning with all this snow! 

Here's a bright one.  I used the new Extra Large Fancy Flower punch along with the Boho Blossoms punch.  Kind of a retro-look to it, eh?



Stamps: Circle Circus, Happy Moments (Sale-a-bration set)
Ink:  Crushed Curry, Bermuda Bay
Paper: Whisper White, Crushed Curry, Bermuda Bay

This card was inspired by a pillow that I saw in a magazine.  It's kind of a different color combination.  The ballet blue works, though.  I thought it was a fun use of the circles, too.
