This is my card for this weekÂ’s CC488. I am your hostess and I have chosen quite an array of colors.
Blushing Bride
Daffodil Delight
Island Indigo
Lost Lagoon (new in-color)
Mossy Meadow (new in-color)
Pistachio Pudding
Strawberry Slush
Whisper White (our neutral this week)
You can use all 7 or just pick 3. I used all 7 colors on my card.
Our dessert option this week is all about summer. So have your creation reflect summer- flowers, beach scene, garden scene, summer fruits- you get the idea.
My card this weeks started with my dsp. I used the “all abloom” collection from Stampin-Up. Once I decided the pattern, I looked fro a sketch. I am using this week’s MojoMonday #355.
I used lots of dies on this card. Scallop and paper bow are MFT blueprints 3, The banners are MFT flag stax die. The doily is also MFT -dizzy doily cut in strawberry slush. I cut a white circle from a Spellbinders die.
The flower is from the SU “secret garden” set. I stamped with strawberry slush ink on blushing bride card stock.
My sentiment is from the Verve set “dream big”. I stamped in lost lagoon ink.
ThatÂ’s my sample for this week. Hope you can play along. You may be our next color challenge favorite and have your card featured on our Pinterest board. See board here.

Such a pretty card, Mary! I love the way the doily extends off the left side of the card. Sweet sentiment, and all the elements go together so well! Lovely!
