Here are the cards that we did in the August classes.

 The cards made in class had the Melon Mambo square smaller and better in proportion.

 This was another quilt card that was made with Sweet Taffy DSP., as well as Hello Honey and Mossy Meadow cs.

 This was the Flower Patch stamps using the new In Colors ink.
