Inspired Stamps:What is your Style?

Hello Everyone today at Inspired Stamps, we are pleased to announce several new DT members (Patty, Leesa, Fabi, DeNetra).  There links are located on the sidebar with the other DT members.
To welcome them to the team and for you to get to know us a bit better, we were all asked, "What is your Style?"  This was hard for me to answer.  I love to learn new techniques and to make cards for specific individuals, customizing the card to their likes.  But if I had to answer based on what kind of card I make more often than any other, it would have to be cards with clean and simple designs.  I love to color images and I don't even mind "fussy cutting" the image as I did on the card below with the roses from the Flower buds set. I stamped the larger rose twice and cut the center from one of the images and pop dotted it to the center of intact rose.  I used the smaller buds with leaves to flank the larger rose and to frame out the scripture from the Proverbs 31 set.
I added a lace scallop frame in the green that matched the stripe in my dp and leaf color.  I added some brown ribbon and another bud at bottom of card for balance.  To complete the feminine feel I added a lace punched piece of trim to the bottom.  I asked some friends what they thought my style was and they said "frugal"  and that is because I make most cards from scraps.  I get an idea for a card and then look in my scrap file drawer and see if I have anything that will work before I cut up a whole sheet.  Do any of you do the same thing?  Thank you for visiting today and make sure to visit the other DT members and see their style and creations.  Make sure to make the new members of the team feel welcomed by sharing some kind words with them.  We all love to hear what you all think of our work.  Have a great day!
