This is me, attempting to keep up.....




I had mentioned in an earlier post that I was going to do better this week about keeping up on my blog. Here is my attempt. The featured card below is for a few challenges.

Here is our wonderful, colorful, inspirational photo!! For some reason, these colors make me THIRSTY!!! Just like the picture shows. I keep looking at it, hoping that those drink are MOJITO's. MMM....refreshing!


Next, CPS 181....Here's the sketch. I kind of got off on my own way with this one...

This Week\

Next, for Stamping On Assignment with Our Daily Bread Designs, we used birds on our cards, on a seasonal setting. I chose a springy/summery setting. I don't really care for dandelions in my yard, but I love them on my cards.

Here are the supplies I used...
Card Stock: Certainly Celery, Garden Green, Tempting Turquoise (Stampin' Up) White Pearl (Coredinations)
Stamps: Fly...Free (Unity Stamp Co.); Scripture Series One (Our Daily Bread Designs)
Ink: Garden Green, Tempting Turquoise, Certainly Celery (Stampin' Up)
Dies: Labels 10 (Spellbinders); Dove (QuicKutz)
Extras: Ribbon (SU); Brad (K&Co.); Liquid Pearls (Ranger)
Markers: Blender Pen, Garden Green Stampin' Write marker (Stampin' Up)

I hope you like my card. Please leave me a comment and let me know you stopped by today!!!
Have a great Monday!!!!

I love dandelions on cards too, Wendy! They are so delicate looking, but strong as well. I love coming to your site and am always inspired by something.
