Here we are at day 4 of Mark's Finest Paper Blog Hop.   I really like this set,  it was so much fun to play with.   The first card I paired the  MFP set Flamingo's on Vacation.  The second card I stamped on a piece of Paper Studio paper and added a lace border.  That is what I call an easy peasy card.   The last card was in my mind a little different than this.  Ever had that happen?  I visualized it with real lip prints, but my lip blots didn't look so hot so I had to use some lips that were cut out and then crimped to try to give it the look of the natural creases in the lips.  I had one I sponged to make it look old, but it did not photograph very good so I went back to no sponging.   Can you tell I really like this set?   Surely it doesn't show. Be sure and hop along to everyone's blog today, leave them a comment to be entered in the drawing to win the free set.  Today is the final day of the hop, I hope you enjoyed it.  Good luck on winning a free stamp set.

    Your cards certainly show the versatility of this stamp set. They make me want to go out and check my mail hoping for a card from a friend. TFS!

    Really like that first postcard, the flamingos in the aloha shirts are pretty adorable. I really like the fluffy cloud background! The second one has a more vintage feel to me. Pretty colors! And love the daisy border. The 3rd one is just fun. The red lips are so cute! What a versatile set!
