Colour Me #56, Serendipity #39 - Hidden Gems, and Simon Says Stamp - Anything Goes



Hello...wishing you are all having a wonderful day. I had a wonderful breakfast with one of my sweet girlfriends and then off to work for a "work party". Not sure why they call it a party...I was not having fun! But we have a school open house this week and I really wanted my classroom to shine, so I put on my ipod and went to work. 

My card is for 3 challenges....Colour Me #56, Serendipity #39 Hidden Gems (I used some buttons that have been sitting around collecting dust for some time) and SSS - Anything Goes. I love the colors for this weeks Colour Me and had to be sure to get my card finished in time. Thank you so much for taking time to stop by...enjoy the rest of your week.

  5. My darling. You take, what for me is a difficult color combination, and make it into a beautiful bouquet of flowers. This is gorgeous. Seriously gorgeous. CAS, yet vibrant and stunning. I love how your mind works. It's snowin' and blowin' here today, so no going to church for me. Instead I'll catch up on commenting and crafting. Blessings to you sweet friend. Bev

  15. These fun colors are so 'happy' feeling. Love the use of the pretty buttons against these hot summer colors of the patterns on the flowers. What a bright bouquet each little group makes on the corners of this wonderful stitched white rectangle. Hope the work proceeded quickly & effectively to make your classroom do you proud during the open house. TFS & Hugs

  25. WOW!! I am in awe. Now I have to get out this stamp set and attempt to use it. This is one of those that has sat in the bin for months. I LOVE the layering of the flowers and the added touch of the button middles. Great take on the challenges.
