*CC440 365 Day Trip

Photo Details

Poster: hobbydujour

Mary gave us a novel challenge of "pick and choose". Her five colors to pick from were:

Strawberry Slush
Pumpkin Pie
Daffodil Delight
Island Indigo
Pool Party

We were to pick at least three. I chose to go with four: Pumpkin, Daffodil, Pool, and Indigo. The dessert was a geometric shape. I have a circle.

Jean (jkanack) recently had this sentiment on her card and I thought it was TERRIFIC(especially for me and my friends who have been on this planet for quite some time). Thanks, Jean.

Love the blend of colors you chose, and the "outer space" look to your card.

It was me, it was me. Well at least it was me last week, don't know if that's what you remember. Love your creation, just what I like.

Terrific, Sallie. The globe and stars are perfect here and your technique with Mr Huey looks great. I also love that sentiment and have sometimes written it inside a card. Great work !

Sallie, I love how you have used this stamp and the CC colors! This is a beautiful birthday card, the star (constellation) map and sentiment are perfect together with your wonderful bg!

Have fun and be creative!

Perfect choice of colors, Sallie, for this astronomy chart. Love the depth you achieved with them. And I really love that sentiment. I must remember that for some of my "geezer" friends - lol.
