Gasp! An original design (or two!)

I actually came up with a couple of original designs! I started out playing around with the poinsettia edge stamp from Patterned Pines and ended up with the card pictured above. I'm not sure I like the coloring on the skating couple, but I wasn't about to redo it, since those corners took forever (each time I stamped I had to color the stamp with three different markers). It's a nice muted card, though.

The card below is the result of a mistake I made while attemping a CASE of someone else's work, but my mistake made my card diverge so far from the original that I think I can call the design my own.
