Hello and a happy Monday to you! I have one card for MIM and one just for fun!
I love this little set by Lexi and needed a get well card , so I just used the same set created and used by Lexi.
I made this one over the weekend with my Purple Onion Designs stamps. I was pleasantly suprised with the size of the picnic basket and tray of treats. Since Im not the best with overall coloring, like I do many times, I left the large image uncolored . I colored the smaller images and then fussy cut them out and added Nuvo Crystal drops.
I had so much fun creating this card I made a few at the same time.

ReplyDeleteSuch clever designs Marybeth! The sequins as steam is genius and the coloured and popped up picnic against the black and white image of the background is truly inspired!! Have a fabulous week my friend! Hazel xx

ReplyDeletesuper soup card - a perfect get well thought and a great take on the challenge!! thanks for playing make it monday! i also really love the black and white background image with the colored picnic images - it has the look of a cool book illustration!
ReplyDeleteGood-looking cards! The focal points just pop!
ReplyDeleteWhat lovely cards!! The first one I really like the steam "sequins." Such a cool design element. The second one I like that you left the black and white, with the coloring of the small images. Looks fantastic!
ReplyDeleteOh I love them both! The first one is so cute and so perfect for a get well card! I really love the way you left the large image uncolored on the second! It really makes the colored image pop! Also, thanks for your sweet comment on my blog :)
ReplyDeleteTwo simply wonderful cards Miss Marybeth! Love your sweet picnic, where were you this weekend? We had a picnic each day last weekend while at Outside Lands, would have loved you to have joined us. Your get well card is so cute. Just love that can of soup!
ReplyDeleteTwo from you today Marybeth, what a delight!! The first one would make anyone feel better, it's so cute! I am smitten with your sweet picnic scene! That's a great tree!!
ReplyDeleteAwesome cards! Such a sweet get well card with the soup. And , second card has a lovely picnic scene! Great use of color and design on both cards!!
ReplyDeleteIf that get well card doesn't make your friend better, nothing will! It's a real sweetheart! Love that soup can.... Might have to add that to my cart, lol! And your picnic scene is really eye catching. I love the black and white with your focal point all in color. This is a wonderful card. Awesome, my friend, just awesome!! Bev
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely lost in the picnic card! Adore the sketchy stamp and the scene you created. And lovely get well card. Perfectly grounded with the white strip.
ReplyDeleteBoth are fabulous, Marybeth! That soup set always makes such wonderful get well cards. The PO card is so adorable! I was glad to see the size of the picnic stamps. I had imagined them to be much smaller. Love your coloring!
ReplyDeleteWonderful cards Marybeth! Love them both!
ReplyDeleteYour get well card is souper (sorry, couldn't resist!) cute Marybeth, and LOVE how you did the sequins! CAS perfection!! And oh my...your picnic card is just fabulous! Absolutely love the idea of leaving most of the card black and white with just a few pops of color! Fantastic cards Marybeth...love them both!! :0)
ReplyDeleteWhat a treat to find two cards in your post today. Your cards are always inspiring and these are no exception. They're both fabulous! I love that you left most of the second card uncolored. That really makes the other colored elements pop and I really love the overall look! I adore the first card too. Don't know why I never got that set...
ReplyDeleteBeautiful cards, Marybeth! Love them both.
ReplyDeleteLove your sweet get well card, and wish I owned those stamps. Your picnic card is so much fun in black and white with pops of colour. Your scene is all set for Yogi Bear to zip into frame and steal that basket!
ReplyDeleteWell, I think I need the Comfort Food stamp set now after seeing your cute card with "steamy sequins". It's perfect!
ReplyDeleteI want to jump into that picnic scene, Marybeth!!! Darling Campbell's soup card, too - would make anyone feel better, even if they weren't actually sick! xx
ReplyDelete=]
I LOVE your little soup vignette!
ReplyDeleteTwo great cards! I also really love Lexi's card but your perfect little soup scene would make anyone feel better!
ReplyDeleteYour second card is adorables too!! I really like how you left the large image uncolored - it makes the perfect backdrop for your yummy picnic scene!

Two lovely designs Marybeth! love the get well 'steam' coming off the soup! Julia xx
ReplyDeleteGreat designs. I love the soup cans and your watermelons are the cutest!
ReplyDeleteBoth cards are lovely!
ReplyDeleteI saw both of these on Instagram and had to drop in to let you know how amazing they both are! Just like you! xo
ReplyDeleteThese cards are super adorbs! Thanks so much for stopping by and leaving such a sweet comment. Have a Great Weekend!
ReplyDeleteFabulous assortment of cards Marybeth!
ReplyDeleteI love these cards, Marybeth :)
ReplyDeleteHave a good week. X
These cards were an absolute treat to see! And I disagree when you say that you aren't the best at coloring because it looked pretty darn great to me! And what a clever concept to leave a large part of your card uncolored! I would've never thought to do that, but it creates a really neat look where the colored parts pop even more. I think it's genius and I shall have to try this technique myself! Thank you so much for the inspiring projects and for sharing your talents with us for this week's Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge!
ReplyDeleteMarybeth, both cards are super. Your "feel better" card would definitely boost one's health with such a delightful card. Your picnic scene with partial coloring is simply divine. Great job as usual!
