Summery Challenge

Hi All!

Hope you're having a good day. I've been busy with errands and kids home from school, forgot what that was like! Finally, have a couple minutes to myself while they are watching a movie. It's another rainy day here so no outside time again!

I wanted to share a card I made last night using a few of the week's challenges. I found some old paper in the closet that fit the color challenge at Colour Create which was to use any three of their choices. I went with Raspberry, Kiwi, and Tangerine. This patterned paper has various shades of those colors and I also added these colors to my image of sweet little Daisy using my Copics.

I used the sketch from Cupcake Craft challenge, one I think I would definitely use again. And then finally by choosing this image, my card works for the ABC Challenge of S is for Summer. We sure could use some Summer here. It's been raining every day for a week now and it looks like it's going to stay that way for a few more days! Yuck!

I embellished with grosgrain ribbon, vanilla HPH, Prima flowers, and pearls. I also embossed the pink piece with the paisley folder and my CB.

Thanks for stopping by, hope you have a great afternoon. Join me and my fellow Whimsy DT members tomorrow for a blog hop! Happy Stamping! :)
