A new stamp set

It's my new thing - brackets! And I found a great stamp set (punctuation) by Kelly Panacci for Sandylion designs at a store while on holiday so of course had to get it. They work great on scrapbook pages as well. I got inspired by this design at Brenda Johnstons blog so thought I would try it out. I think her cards are great. After hunting out some patterened paper the cards took shape quite quickly. And why do one when you can do two? My birthday card box is filling up. I think I am even a month or so ahead for the first time in forever.
