Thinking of You



YAY for Friday...

We are on Day 5 of the Color Combo Challenge at Penny Black...have you played along yet?
Click on the banner below for the challenge color combos and how to enter your projects to win FREE stamps. Who doesn't like free?!?




Today's colors reminded me of a paint chip I had stashed in a drawer. The funny thing is that Nancy over at Operation Write Home did a post on paint chips this week that made me laugh. The link to the blog post is here. (go on ...you will laugh too, because I know you are going to feel the same as her about this subject).
And of course I am entering this card into her challenge at OWH.

Anyway...
I used a paint chip as my card base, rounded the corners and heat embossed over the "paint names".
Stamped, colored and fussy cut the large flower.


The flowers are Petal Party (30-113) and the sentiment is from the Sentimental (30-176) set.

You have until September 27th to play in the challenge...go, go get started and get those projects in.

UPATED: I just discovered that this card qualifies for the challenge at Simon Says Stamp:
Emboss It....
Yay me!
