CC&S #428

Hello! I hope you are all doing well. I've been trying to catch up on my garden weeding between the rain we have been having and work. I tried a lot of new flowers this year and am pleased with how most of it is coming along. It's been so gloomy here this week I felt like making something really colorful to brighten my day.

 Hello! I know it's the 6th of July, but this week's colors said fall to me. I've had this die floating around my desk for months waiting to use it. I think these colors worked out perfectly. I hope everyone had a safe a happy 4th , we stayed home and enjoyed the neighborhood fireworks and fire... yep one of the new neighbors ( moved in from another state where fireworks aren't legal) got a bit carried away with celebrating and burned his garage with the car in it to the ground, was able to see most of that safely from a lawn chair on my own yard. It was notably quiet the next night... hmm? Sorry if that sounds mean, I don't enjoy fireworks and work in a field where I've seen more than my fair share of eye injuries due to fireworks, I'd be ok if they were illegal. Thanks for stopping by today.

Hello! I hope everyone is doing well. We have had more than enough rain here the last few days. A few of my flowers in pots are looking a bit sickly after floating for days on end. We had been having a drought, down a foot of rain this season so far.. I think we might have got that much in 4 days, with more in the forecast this week. My lawn looks lush and green, and the weeds sure are getting big... LOL!! I hope to be able to get to them this weekend. Thanks for stopping by today.

 Hello! I hope you all are doing well. I've been trying to keep up with the pressures of life recently. Things have been very busy, not leaving much time for anything fun. I hope you will join us for another "Anything goes" challenge. I've challenged myself to use non-traditional colors for as many challenges as possible ... let's see how long I can keep it up. 

CC&S #425

Hello! I hope you all are doing well. Things have been turned upside down at work recently, so that has kept me busy. But perhaps more on that another time... I opted to flip the sketch, but then a sentiment didn't look good so I left it off. I often need blank note cards, so it will be useful in the future. Thanks for stopping in today. 
 

CC&S #423

 Greetings! I hope you are all doing well. Took last week off , needed a mental break. Job stress has got the better of me lately. The colours this week just said floral to me, and look how fabulous they worked with this stencil... yep it's a stencil. I used the same 3 colours, just heavier hand for the highlight layer. The makes me want to run out to the garden , but it's a bit too hot for my liking today. Thanks for stopping by today. 

CC&S #422

 

Hello! It's Tuesday again, I feel like I lost a whole week. I came down with a kidney infection last week, feeling better now. I feel like I slept more last week than the whole month. For my card this week I wanted to try something different with the "white space" .. not white. I have a new found love of Pink fresh studio stamps/dies , I really wanted to use this butterfly. I think I'm just going to send all my money to them.. LOL!!! Thanks for stopping by today.
