CQC #149, CFC #65 & RS #24 ~ Just for You!
Will someone please explain our weather to me. Yesterday it was only 63 and rainy...in the middle of August...63! It was 90 in April ~ isn't this supposed to be the other way around!!??!! Days like that call for card making and cookie baking! I have a card I made for the ColourQ and CAS-ual Fridays. Then I checked into my blog and discovered a new sketch over at Retro Sketches. I looked at my card again and thought hmmm...this might just squeak by there too, it's close, not exact, but what the heck! Take a peek and let me know what you think.
This is pretty self explanatory but here's what I used. My white card base is a square 4"x 4" with a Summer Starfruit panel on top of that. I die cut PTI limitless layers and stamped the white circle with an Endless Creations sentiment using leaf green ink. I think it's a great match for the Gumball Green. The scalloped circle is cut from Midnight Muse. My pretty flourish is by DeNami ~ love it! A fabulous chipboard button, gems for some shine and I'll enter this into all three challenges.
