Chris is our hostess in the Color Challenge this week, and she has given us some of my favorite colors: Bermuda Bay, Coastal Cabana and Cinnamon Cider. The dessert option this week is metallic, but I'm going to pass on dessert--just could not find a way to get it in.
I am celebrating this week. My granddaughter has landed her dream job at the ripe old age of 25! She is a speech pathologist, and will be working at Children's Hospital in Denver. She is over the moon, and so is the whole family! Hence this card, which I think expresses our sentiments very well!
I used a digi from Mo Manning, colored with Copic markers. The card base is Coastal Cabana with Distressed Dots stamped in the same color ink, and the edges were sponged in the same color.
I hope you have fun this these pretty colors, and that you'll share your creativity in the gallery this week!

Well your excitement certainly comes through on this fun card...Mo never lets us down when we need a image for a special occasion -- and I love the way you have colored this up. The dots in the bg are great and just keep the party going; but, it's that glittery congrats that take this from party to celebration! Such a fun, joyful card. Congrats to your granddaughter.

So cute and joyful! Love the image. The puppy is perfect for the brown. Love the polka-dots repeated in the background. The glitter die-cut word is fabulous. Wonderful card. Congrats to your GD for her dream job! That's worth celebrating.

You really captured excitement in this fun congratulations card. It's awesome. I'm really happy to hear about your niece's job. She has worked hard to get to this point and it's great to see that rewarded. We all celebrate with her.
