Here are several cards made with Elements of Style. It’s a popular stamp but it’s not the style I normally gravitate toward. My upline (hi Cindy!) asked me to help her come up with some ideas for swaps using this set and these are the results:

Version 1

Version 5: I think I hate the green butterfly. I may try a different color, maybe white with sponging, or black, or razzleberry?
