Little gazebo inspiration

Hello!

Just thought I'd share these cards here.  A couple cards I did with the new Cozy Gazebo.  Love the color versatility!  I did a color tutorial for both versions below over on the Doodle Pantry blog.  Supplies listed on the other blog.

Thanks for coming by to take a peek!  I hope you enjoy your Sunday.

 

Wishing you a wonderfully crafty day!
