Sending Big Hugs and You're My Cup Of Tea

Hello again,

Here are a couple more LOVEFEST 2013 cards.

The first one is for the Day 7 challenge hosted by My Favorite Things. The challenge is to make an encouraging card. This one is for my sweet niece Rachel, who is away at college.

The sketch is Mojo Monday 282.

Card 2 is for the Day 1 challenge. This challenge is to use supplies that spell out L.O.V.E. Mine are:
L: layers, O: orange, V: Verve stamps, E: embossing folder.

I'm loving the orange and gray colors on this card for some reason.
