I apologize for the delay in today's post, but hopefully it was worth waiting for!

In keeping with this weeks theme, the cards today both include fabulous photos in their designs.

First is a cool card from Design Team member Celine...
Supplies: Humpty Dumpty (34665) - Baby Paper, Pearl Bobbinhauser (34718) - Craft Fair paper, Chronicle (34748) - Character Paper, Backyard Remarks Accents Sun Clear (42544) - Remarks, Mustard (27137) - Zing! Embossing Powder, Charcoal (27147) - Zing! Embossing Powder, Clear Stamp Sentiments LG (59004) - Clear Stamps, Character Flair Exclamation (70025) - Flair, Dolce Apricot (42927) - Thickers

I love the idea of using a scenic photo on a card and highlighting a piece of it with a punched circle.

The second card comes from Design Team member Belinda...
Supplies: Homecoming Queen paper ( 34638) – Teen Collection, Ruth Buttonham paper (34725) – Craft Fair Collection, Midge Gathermoore paper (34714) – Craft Fair Collection, Stitch Ribbon (89106) – Occasions Four Assortment, Awesome Accents Black and White (42536) – Remarks sticker book, Birthday Large Set (59008) – Clear Stamps, Grapefruit Opaque Finish (27135) – Zing! Embossing Powder

Word bubbles are a hot trend right now and it looks perfect when paired with a photo.

Thanks for the awesome ideas ladies! Hope this gives you some ideas for including photos on your next card.
