Today, I'm going to share with you something I bought which is slightly different for me but it sure makes for quick and easy, git 'er done, cards! These are files which contain three different sizes of digital images (A2, A6,& A7 card sizes), pre-colored and ready to print. All you need is to trim them to fit the card.
Here's an A2 card made with the smallest image size. The image is called Peace and Quiet. I think it took me less than 10 minutes to have the card finished.
In order to use all the colors from Tuesday Throwdown,
I used dark blue CS for the frame and I chose
the pre-made card base with the flowers.
Cut with QuicKutz die
Dark blue frame cut with Tutti Designs die
Card base is from DCWV Linen Closet set

Now, having done that really quick card, I decided to play around a bit and see what else I could do with them. Here's the result using exactly the same size image but this time I adjusted the pre-colored version into gray-scale before I printed it. This card took me about 15 minutes, including working in MS Word to get the preferred lever of gray-scale before printing.
Yellow ProMarker used to color the bees and pansies
Black, fine line, gel pen used on sentiment
