For today's colors. I honestly thought cantaloupe would be my main color, but then I got to thinking how these colors would make a wonderful Father's Day card and went from there. I won this Seaside stamp set from playing in a Mod Squad Challenge! Yippee for me! I got the idea for the card from their website. Stamped the pelican and colored his beak and legs, cut him out. I sponged the crumb dies in crumb, sponged sand on the white layer, added the reeds and IBBG for sand and birds in the sky. All is popped up onto the dotted panel. Thanks for stopping by today! ~Roberta

I like how you focused on the neutrals in this with just a touch of Crisp Cataloupe.

Omgoodness-this is great!!! I am keeping it for me to look at later! Yes, yay for you! This is a good bird! Dont see those everyday!
Great job cutting out the bird and I like his back end is sticking out over the edge and the soft surrounds.
I have trouble when dies have this much space between layers but this is so good-another reason to keep it and be braver about it! Thank you, you inspire me!

FABULOUS Father's Day card, Roberta, love your pelican stamp, a great prize to receive! I just love this layout and the way you have so excellently used the colours! BTW, I just want to come over and sit out on that patio/verandah of yours with a glass of red - what a view!!
