You're So Kind




Good morning, it's Sat and I go to WW this morning, cross your fingers and pray I have lost my goal of 1.2 this week. UPDATE I lost 1.4 this week!!!!!!

Here Is a card I made yesterday for 2 challenges, first one is the mini challenge our group Crafters of Faith came up with. Each one of us picked 3 colors for another member to work with, Melina of Crafty Scrapper got mine name and challenge me to use Orange, Purple and Blue. What crazy colors together I thought, but not to be done in............here is what I came up with, although I had help with the fantastic sketch from MOJO 224 this week. I used Stampin Up card Stock,White, Only Orange, Orchid Opulence and Bashful Blue. The ribbon is some I had on hand,(using that stash again), I also used Heartfelt Creations 712 Bella Rose Die and 713 Decorative Lace Die. Spellbinders Kaleidoscope, Floral Doily Motifs, and Parisian Motifs. Martha Stewart flower punch and the sentiment is SU Whimsical Words. I like how it turned out, thanks Melina for getting me out of my comfort zone!!! Okay, off to the shower then out the door. Have a blessed day and remember to smile, God loves ya!!!
