I'm the color challenge hostess today - and in honor of the coming summer - I've chosen another monochromatic color scheme - Pool Party, Island Indigo and Whispering White.
I used a fun new stamp and die set - Vanity License Plate by MFT.
I stamped the cropped message - SUMR-12 on the die cut license plate adding silver brads to the holes in the plate. I embossed my card with Retro Circles by Sizzix and layered a wave cut with another die from MFT. The license plate is popped up on foam tape.
This is also for this week's CAS challenge - a sketch - I flipped the sketch on it's side.
Oh - and the dessert option for my challenge today is to make it about water - the ocean, a lake or a cool summer drink! I used an ocean wave on my card.
(I'm posting a little early because we're having a thunderstorm and I'm afraid I'll lose electricity!)

You are not going to believe this but I pulled out the same exact stamp set to use for this challenge and at the last minute changed my mind!
Love your CAS card and thanks for the summery beautiful colors!
