Name that Card Line!

I've created some new images to use on my cards and decided to start a new line. Thus far I have Made-U-Look, Kaleidoscope, Whirly Girl, and En Pointe. I am stumped for this new line! So far, the majority of the images are flowers, but I don't want to limit myself to those alone. The one thing they all have in common is that I've used a digital filter that makes photographs look like paintings or drawings or watercolors...

So...

I'm asking for ideas from my readers, fans, and tweeps! Please leave your ideas in the comment section by clicking on the comment link below, or if you are a Facebook Fan or Twitter follower, you can direct message me or post an idea on my wall. If I use your title for my new line, I'll contact you and you will receive a set of 6 of these blank note cards as a thank you!

Here are some examples to get your creative juices flowing!:


Can't wait to see what you come up with! Thanks so much for helping me out...I hope I'll be sending you a package of gorgeous cards soon!

    Beautiful work Laurie! The flowers are outstanding! I love the red one. My idea for the series is, Digital Brush.

    How about Pixel Paintings or Bit by Bit?

    With the digital brushing the images have a dreamy quality to them... like something you'd see in a dream. How about Dreamscape? Or Once Upon a Dream? Dreaming? Just Dreaming? Sweet Dreams?

    Hey, Laurie! I love these. As a former painter, I like the term "Plein Air". It is the practice of painting outside ... on location. I think these remind me of impressionist paintings with their distinctive brushwork in natural settings.

    Wow, you gals are really coming up with some great titles! I may do this again to rename my Whirly Girl line, which I named in a hurry and have never been happy with! Thanks so much, all!

    i posted a suggestion yesterday, but it looks like i messed up when i submitted my comment lol
    what about "art whimsy"? a play on word to the fact that the cards are whimsical art pieces and one 'hearts', loves them :)

    gorgeous cards!
