Happy Birthday Sister
Good Monday morning! I've been a bit MIA.....lots going on and more craziness to come. This will be one of my last posts (I've got one more for you tomorrow morning) for about 10 days. I will be out of town and will have no computer access. But all for good reasons! R is finally coming home!!
I have to say that this is my favorite color combo at the moment. I'm always drawn to green....I don't know why. That color so easily coordinates with every other color. I was thinking about this earlier.....a color that I never seem to use is purple. I have a hard time with that color. I don't think I even own a purple shirt....crazy, huh? I'll have to change that, I guess.
This card I made using a combination of the Beautiful Bloms and Women of Life stamp sets. The flowered paper is Pink Patterns from PTI. The flowers are stamped in Berry Sorbet inside the Cuttlebug flower dies. I used my SU! ticket punch in the corners of the Spring Moss cardstock. The strip of Berry Sorbet cardstock is trimmed using my Fiskars scalloped scissors. The rest is pretty straight forward.
Thanks for visiting today! I'll be back in the morning with one more post! Till then....
