Hello again! I had a super day today - the kids got a lot of school work done and I got some laundry tackled, went outside and enjoyed some wonderful sunshine while cleaning up the yard a bit, finished book #2 in my series I'm reading, crocheted on an unfinished project :) and made a yummy roast beef, potatoes and mixed veggies supper mmmmmmm!
Tonight I decided to sneak one more card in before I go sit and crochet for a while and then continue on the series with book #3! :o) I hopped on over to Debbie's first challenge over at The Shabby Tea Room - and awaiting me there was a wonderful inspirational color challenge of pink, red, brown and green. Sounded easy enough so I needed a sketch....I clicked over to 2 Sketches 4 You and found a very interesting sketch challenge for us - thanks Kazan!! Over at Pile it On, they wanted us to use pastels...so I already had Pretty in Pink picked out for one of my colors so that was good! Away I went and got to work....I used the wonderful Trendy Trees set for this card - I hope you like it!!
and here is my 5.25 x 5.25 card - I really enjoyed stamping these trees - it's a super versatile set with endless possibilities! They are so cute....
Thanks for stopping in tonight! I hope you had a fantabulous Monday full of creativity and smiles! See you tomorrow!
This is a very cute card. I tried this sketch eariler...and I am still looking for a master piece to come of it. TFS. Congrat's on all of your accomplishments today!!!

Wonderful job of working all those challenges. Your card came out super. Love the image and those beautiful big pearls. Great job on the "pastel" challenge.
