Wow! What wonderful cards! I love all the layers of the first- even grunge can be elegant! I love the color combination in the 2nd card- you have out done yourself!
Grungy is Good! At least that is the way it comes off looking at your card creations. Both beautifully done! Love the new ODBD releases.
Chris, Liked your sneek peek yesterday here and at SCS but the release card is just amazing. I LOVE that paper you have used, and the cross cut out with the die is perfect, sentiment sums it all up. He never gives up on us. Beautiful card.
