Debossed Garden Pool Party

Hope that you're staying cool...our Arizona summer heat is here, which means lots of swimming and air-conditioning.Unfortunately, I'm a little short on the air-conditioning today. Our air-conditioner stopped working last night, so I guess we'll be doing more swimming today in order to stay cool. Temps are supposed to reach around 110 degress. Yikes!! We've got someone working on it today, so hopefully it will be up and running soon. It's a little warm, to say the least. These kinds of things definitely make you thankful that someone invented the air-conditioner!

This little card popped into my mind the other night, but I had to wait until the next day to create it. While visiting Splitcoast Stampers, I discovered that this card actually is very similar to this week's Sketch Challenge. The two new In-Colors, Pool Party and Calypso Coral, are great together, especially with the Whisper White background. The daisy is a SU bulk buy leftover...I didn't have any of the Paper Daisy embellisments, but they would look great on this card. I brayered over the debossed side of the Flower Garden impression with Pool Party which makes the white Flower Garden impression pop.
Thanks for letting me share!

In-Color Fifth Avenue

For today's card share I used a couple of the new 2011-12 In-Colors, Calypso Coral and Pool Party, along with Early Espresso (for the card base) and Crumb Cake (front panel).

I really wasn't planning on making a card today, but when I came into my craft room I came across leftover pieces of punched cardstock and a Fifth Avenue Reinker Spread rose and a card began to develop. I really tried to stay focused on the other things I needed to do today, but the card was calling to be made. So, since I did need a birthday card for a friend, I gathered my leftover pieces and came up with this card. I think my favorite part of the card is the color combination. These four colors look great together.

Thanks for letting me share a piece of my creative day with you...and thanks so much for stopping by :-)

A Little Bit of This and That

My card share today has just what the title says...a little bit of this and a little bit of that. My layout was inspired by this week's Mojo Monday sketch challenge. I'm using one of the new 2011-2012 In-Colors "Pool Party" for the card base and also the new Postage Stamp punch from the new Summer Mini Catlaog. The DSP is from last year's SAB DSP, unfortunately I can't remember the name of the DSP, but it was a 6x6" stack of paper with little houses printed on some of the sheets...too cute!

Well, since the DSP matched the Pool Party, I thought I'd use the DSP to turn my retired clear buttons into cute matching buttons. One thing that's always fun when the new In-Colors are introduced is that you get to play around and try them out with other colors. I love how Real Red coordinates with the Pool Party...it creates a very cheery and summery feel. Thanks for stopping by...See you next time!
