Two new favorites

I've recently become obsessed with the color sea foam green. I don't know if it's because it's started popping up in the stores that I frequent or what, but I just can't seem to get enough. Besides my wardrobe, the other area the color is leaking into my life is my card designs. Several paper designers have sea foam green papers out; Teresa Collins and Fancy Pants Designs (hereto known as FPD) are just two of my favorite examples.

Here is a card I made with Teresa Collin's Tell Diamonds paper from the Tell Your Story collection:

Mom asked for some sympathy cards so naturally I had to incorporate the color into her request. Here is the sympathy card I made with FPD Park Bench paper collection:

My other new favorite thing that's been cropping up in my closet and card supplies is the chevron pattern. Imagine my giddiness when finding a paper that incorporates both chevron and sea foam green. Here is the first card I made with it:

This, too, is FPD Park Bench collection. And for those curious minds, here's a look at the inside:
Those matching brads come from Bazzill Basic Paper. Aren't they perfect?

Finally, here is a nice card that mixes FPD's Park Bench and Trend Setter collections:

As always, the above cards can be purchased at my etsy shop, except the sympathy card.
