Peggy- awesome colors- and Happy Birthday to your Mom! I joined my friends for a stamping night- "work on your projects"- and used the goodies my friend Kathy had in her stash. It reminds me a bit of a quilt Here's Many Thanks

Does anybody know why whenever I upload in the afternoon and put in the url codes instead of the looong title, that it comes up weird like it did above? And ... there used to be an "edit" option (I think) and it's not there either? It seems to only do this for me in the afternoon. Hmmm.
Do you ever notice how an element on a card looks straight until you see it in a photo? Ugh, that's what happened with this card and the trellis-look stamped image. Oh well, too late to start over! Love the colors for today!
GORGEOUS color combo. So happy I had time to play along.
Garden green and pistachio are colors I don't often use, but they look stunning in this combo! Thanks for getting me to reach for some unused colors! That's why I love challenges!

I tried to get my colors close, but after I finished the card and finished photographing it, I realized that I missed the mark. I did have fun making my card though. I usually color iris purple, so the color challenge at least challenged me to think outside my comfort zone.

INDEED I do! You see every spec of dust, that your panels are not aligned just right and off by 1/8", or that your borders aren't even (and should have been), or that your twine has separated and is crooked, or what I see the most, is that your sentiment (which is the #1 thing for me) is just a titch off. (If I wasn't too lazy to get up and get the Stampamajig that wouldn't happen-haha!) Anyway, we are all imperfect and our art shows our uniqueness--or that maybe we need glasses, or stronger ones at that. HEE! The only good thing about it is that it allows us to extend our creative energy by trying to come up with a clever way to "fix" it.
