Love all the cards and beautiful DSP, but I like the snail mail layout best.
I like the hydrangea card. The donkey card is cute also.
I liked the donkey card, also all were great and easy to do. I will be trying many.
I love them all, but the Hydrangea is my favorite!
My favorite layout is the one using the Well Suited DSP. I like this layout because I think it is nice how you see both sides of the DSP that serves as the front of the card. I’m going to try this layout! Or better yet, I might make 10 cards, using each layout!
For card layout, my pick is the snail mail design. If I am choosing my favorite paper, that it totally different. I don’t think I can choose a favorite DSP! Thanks for all the great, yet simple card designs.
I love the popsicle card and dragonfly cards. The rest were great too.?
I love the Hydrengea Hill cards, but the black and white is a close second!
My favorite design is the layering on the hydrangea cards. Always a nice effect, and with so many pretty papers to choose from, endless possibilities!
I like the two where the paper was torn best, but of the the two like the one town in half the long way.
I love the variety!! Good idea to use up my hoard of DSP. The snail is my favorite
Love all of them but my favorite is the card for the Snail Mail DSP , love the use of the piece of paper inside
I love the darling donkeys card. The others are darling, too
I really like the hydrangea card.
Hydrangea Hill card is my favorite not only because of the layout, but the papers are beautiful?
Mahalo for the pictures and the measurements!!
Hard choice – so much wonderfuness to choose from!!
Final choice / the dancing donkeys!
Boy so hard to pick just one. I think my first choice would be the Z fold card. I love the color of the card base and how well the designer paper goes with it. Thank you so much for sharing the measurements for each card. I want to make them all.
They are beautiful or fun. Will be trying a few of them thanks for sharing. My favorite of the favorites is the black n white one
All the cards offer a great layout. I really like the masculine card which shows both sides of the DSP.
Find Art Floral is my fav. I like how you can get 2 cards out of 1 piece DSP. TFS all these wonderful ideas! Happy New Year to you & Tim!
Great ideas for the 4×6” papers and I love that you show the measurements for cutting all of these! Thank you!

I love the darling donkey layout. Just fun and different!!
True Love Designer paper in black and white, is my favorite
I was going to switch my vote to the masculine card, but I think I’ll stick with my first choice, the bright and cheery snail card. Not centering everything is something I need to incorporate in my cards, and I also like the sentiment coming across the center.
I like the Field and Flowers layout and DSP. Had trouble deciding between that card and the dragonfly card. I definitely love the dragonfly punch?

You snailed it. Such a simple and versatile design for many occasions.
