Today's Color Challenge over at SCS was to use Kraft, Not Quite Navy, and Baja Breeze! I started out using "Season of Friendship" but when I was on my second try, I decided to get out a new stamp set. I chose "Wow Flowers" because I thought these colors would work well for a birthday card. My friend's birthday is on the 18th and I want to give her a bunch of handmade cards as part of her present. She mentioned that she was in need, so I thought that it would be a great gift. She mentioned that she needed a lot of thank you cards and birthday cards, so this will be one that I will add to her growing stash.
The card is pretty straightforward. I just used a lot of punches for the raised image. Quick and easy with some fun details! I recently did something to my back and it has been sore for a while. It was on the mend and then something seriously went wrong yesterday, so it is hard for me to sit in a chair for too long. Hopefully I will be back
tomorrow with a better back. Thanks for fluttering by!Supplies: Wow Flowers stamp set

ReplyDeleteHey Kelly, I'm sorry to hear about your back! I can't make three cards per evening without having my back ache pretty much, and that really sucks, so you have my compassion! I really hope you get better soon! Cute card btw :) Love the colour combo! Greetings from Germany - Nina
