Color Trends

A little to pastel for me, but I had to try it. That is what makes it a challenge right? I mean honestly. If you aren't pulling your hair out looking at the colors, attempting to do something with them... then how is it a challenge... words I forever live by! 

It was empty without a sentiment. There is embossing on the Pool Party, that you cannot make out. I promise its there!

Melon Mambo Monday

I have to admit, Melon Mambo was my absolute favorite pinks for a long time.. I know its isn't too new to the SU Color Family, but it seems like when I need pink, I go with Melon.  Weird, because, I really am not a pink gal. I like it every once in a while, but I am trying to use it more... like 5 other colors I continue to stare at and never use!

So, I kept it simple. 

I used the Melon Mambo along with Crumb Cake DSP, then punched the large scallop circle in Melon. I used Melon ribbon along the bottom. I stamped the En Francais background stamp on Crumb Cake then cut 4 layers of the Big Shot Island Floral die,  crumbled them and then cut them in half. I used the itty bitty flower punch for the center and attached all with a brad. I am trying to make sure when I make cards, I do the envelop as well, so I ran the Crumb cake envelope thru the polka dot embossing folder for the Big Shot.

Hand in Hand or Far Apart

You are on my mind and in my heart"

I had to clean my table area up.. get rid of some items that were just clogging up space and get re organized. I should have known that when I even attempted to get near the craft table, I would sit and create, or revisit what was laying around... I forgot about this cute little pink and brown card I made in hope I would remember a Challenge on SCS- for CAS card (Clean and Simple).

I didn't remember, but I wanted to show it off. I got alittle carried away with the stickles, but if I recall, I believe I was having difficulties with the bottle of it... nonetheless, its pretty enough for me to want to zip it in the mail.


The Stickles pretty it up- but maybe alittle too much Stickles on this delicate flower! I popped it up and like the clean look.

Inside it says "Miss you"

Pink as promised

As promised, here is another pink card. I have wanted to use this stamp for a long time. I like the stamp, and the others that are along this line. I used some transparencies that my coworker gave me, to give some detail...

It was during Greys- I couldn't get too fancy- but I am pleased with the layout.

Thank you for looking!
