Friendship in Turquoise and Yellow

Today's 3 cards come from a HOTP set designed to make one card.  While most materials came from the set, I did add things from my stash from time to time.

Card #1 (above):  For this card, all came from the set except the "lifesaver" embellishments (from my stash - not sure where I got them) and white card stock.  HOWEVER, the focal came from the printed example on the cover of the booklet rather than the set itself!

Inside:

Once again, all is from the set except for white card stock.

Card #2:

This was the actual printed focal that came in the set - along with papers from the set.  It's pretty straight forward.

Inside:

The inside greeting is die cut (Creative Expressions Stacked Happy Birthday) using paper from the set. I glued it to a piece of white card stock that I had inked with dark blue and aqua to coordinate.  The rest are papers from the set.

Card #3:

Once again the focal came from the cover.  It's not exactly square because of the camera angle, but I think I disguised that well enough that most folks won't notice.  The yellow checked & the yellow/blue border were scraps from my stash, as were the stickers (large scroll & 2 flowers).  The large scroll sticker was originally too wide to go where I wanted, so I cut pieces off and added them where I thought it would like nice.  

Inside:

Inside I used more scraps from my stash - and another flower sticker I found there.
