So I have been on a mission to fill a box with cards to send to Operation Write Home. I am still working on it. I am starting to think I should have picked a smaller box though! There are currently 75 cards in the box and I could probably get another 50-75 more in there!
I am actually working days this month (11am-11pm) in my new job at Sanford Bemidji ER, but next month I will be working nights. I imagine I will end up doing more stamping when I only have a couple days off. It just doesn't make sense to switch my sleeping schedule for such a short time. Frankly, it is like torture for me! I am not really a night person. I get crabby at home. Ask my family..... sorry guys!
I hope these colors don't look bad together. I keep looking at this and loving it, but I just can't help think that Always Artichoke and Pool Party are not supposed to go together! I sponged the Pool Party first, then stamped the rest. I ended up pulling out a couple of retired sentiments for it too.
- Stamps: Watercolor Winter, Peaceful Wishes, Star-Studded Season
- Ink: Always Artichoke, Early Espresso, Pool Party
- Paper: Always Artichoke, Early Espresso, Whisper White
- Other: Sponge, Signo white gel pen, Early Espresso ¼" Stitched Grosgrain ribbon, dimensionals
I hope I left enough room for a message on the inside, I think I got a little carried away :)
Now, I want some honest opinions about this color combo!
Absolutely gorgeous. Love the color combo, love the pines, love the sentiments.
ReplyDeleteAgreed! Absolutely gorgeous! Colors look amazing together!
ReplyDeleteI guess it would be cheating to just say ditto to what everyone else said, but they are spot on. Great colors, great layout, great everything!
ReplyDeleteWOW - what a gift you are creating! That is a lot of cards and your's are always so well done.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing this card. I just may have to case it. My hubby asked me to make cards for him to use (at work) and this design would be perfect. :)
Wow! I love the color combo! The sponged background is just gorgeous!
