OMG Carole,
You have created such an amazing cards.

I LOVE what you did with this card it is amazing! I have been looking for urban digi backgrounds and these are excellent!
Two gorgeous cards Carole,your colouring is perfect.xxx
I am loving both of these cards. The coloring, the elements, the embellies, all of it. Fantastic work.
Love the cards, Carole! You managed to create two completely different feels - I love both.
Jen
Both of your cards are wonderful.
It's bloody amazing that you managed to make TWO cards for the hop - colouring like that must take freakin' ages!! Your work with facial features and textile is just beyond belief!
Oh, and embossing printed images - all you need to do is to print in high quality on coated card (like pearlescent or gloss) which doesn't absorb the ink fast, then you'll have enough time to dump the embossing powder on as soon as it's out of printer. Easy, really :)
Hugs
Annika
such amazing coloring, had to become a follower along the way of this amazing hop, TFS

Beautiful scenes and love the coloring.
Really pretty cards! Love coloring and images you used!
These are BOTH fantastic but the first one is my favorite! Those windows are perfect and I wish I had more variation to the grays and yours look perfect. Both images are colored gorgeously and the color of the brick is perfect! *Hugs
Two fabulous cards... and the second one is unique... a boy in it!!! Great idea!!
Two great cards! Love the backgrounds on both and the wonderfully coloured images.
What gorgeous cards you have made. I love the window colouring in the first card and the colour scheme you have used. I like the eyelets along the bottom of the second card and the way the background is more muted which makes the Victory Kid image stand out much more. Thanks for sharing.
Wow! These cards are fabulous! Great scenes and wonderful colouring. Thank you for your entry into the challenge at Sir Stampalot this month.
