Southwest Stamping Class

Are you all as happy as me that it is the weekend?!! :) These are some cards I made for my next class at my LSS, Mementos. There is a big demand this time of year in my neck of the woods (or maybe I should say in my "neck of the desert" LOL) for Southwest classes. I had fun stretching my creative muscles to use some stamps I wouldn't normally pick out. And I have to admit, it was kind of refreshing! Here are the cards:
Thanks for looking and for stopping by. I hope you have a wonderful, creative weekend! HUGS!

I lived in the Mojave Desert for 4 years and can really appreciate its rare beauty! You've captured that in your wonderful cards....minus the dry heat ;)

Wow, the nature toned colors are spectacular Jill! They highlight the images so well! Have fun at your class...how neat the name of the store is a name of an ink?

These are amazing! I totally wish I could take a class from you. Being from Minnesota, though, I'm pretty sure someone here would think I've lost it if I gave them a cactus card. haha!
