Well, today dawned bright and sunny and I dawned with the start of a cold. I'm so not happy but to make things better, I headed for my craft room for some therapy. No matter how lousy I feel, I always find comfort creating.
Today, I combined the sketch from the CAS Colours & Sketches Challenge with the colors from the Color Throwdown Challenge. The colors were rust, green, orange and aqua so I pulled out my Cajun Craze, Wild Wasabi, Pumpkin Pie and Pool Party. The Pumpkin Pie is hard to see but it is on the center of each flower. I think the glitter gems covered too much of it up but you can see some of it peeking out. I really like the way this came together.
Stamp Sets: Colorful Seasons (Stampin' Up!), Delightful Daisies (Heartfelt Creations); Inks: Cajun Craze, Pumpkin Pie, Timber Brown StazOn, Wild Wasabi; Cardstock: Pool Party, Sugar Cube; Other: Chicken Wire Embossing Folder (Taylored Expressions), Delightful Daisy Dies (Heartfelt Creations), Glitter Gems (Triveni Crafts), Stitched Rectangle Stacklets Dies (Taylored Expressions)
