Busy Morning

Here are cards #3 & #4 for the morning. I've been up for awhile, but I also was on the phone and was sorting completed cards and matching them with envelopes.

I am participating in some more new challenges. This first card is for the Cupcake Craft Challenge. The theme is Strawberries & Cream. I love this Phindy's Place image of the mouse on the strawberry cake.
I am also participating in the Shabby Tea Room Challenge. They had a photo of a bedroom posted for inspiration. The colors were warm browns/apricot, sage.... So I came up with this second card.

This is also a Phindy image. The DP is from HOTP. I like the look of rich shades of brown.

Mary, both of these cards are beautiful, and yet so different with colors. I like the rich browns, too.
