Vicki chose such pretty colors this week...tempting turquoise, primrose petals, and real red. I even got the desert option to use a tag...I used 3 little jewelery tags. For the TLC559 I cased one of my cards and used the bleeched out image tutorial...we are supposed to link to the card we cased, but I am having some technical difficulty, so I will try to link it later. Come play along in this week's color challenge...these are great colors for holiday cards ( I haven't made a single one yet and the holidays will be here soon. I see some late night stamping in my future). TFL, Francie

Francie, I love this! Perfect way to use the colors on your card - the big image is gorgeous, and those tags are adorable. They work great with the sentiment. The torn bottom and distressed edges would seem at odds with the bow, but it really works!

You are one of those artists that can always make a card that makes someone smile! Love the happy colors and cheerful design along with the little tags! Love your torn paper and beautiful framing of those fantastic blossoms!

Wow Miss Francie this is fabulous. I have often thought you should be working as fabric designer....this would make a gorgeous vintage apron!!! I'm a terrible cook, but I like to look the part.

...sure it�s got a catchy beat, but can you stamp to it?

Oh wow, those colours are just beautiful!! Reds and bright aqua/ turquoise blues are one of my favourite colour combinations. And using the white embossing for the flowers gives this such a light, happy summery feel.

Your card is so gorgeous and did make me smile. And like the cute tags say 'happy', smiles spread happiness. My day is starting out that way looking at your card and others for this challenge. I love the roses - wonderful in every way!
