It's Coffee Break Time


Good Wednesday morning to ya all!!! Hope you all are able to enjoy the Summer days... kinda gives ya a lift when the sun is shinning.


Take a hop over to the Diva's blog to check out the color challenge we are using this week. I found it to be a little of a challenge, just because the colors aren't something I use everyday. The colors are Always Artichoke, Night of Navy, Bashful Blue and Whisper White or Very Vanilla. I used the Top Note as the main focus on the front of my card. It also gave me the opportunity to use my Big Shot..... a little machine that is quite useful... be sure and try it, if you haven't!!!! To further show the tree and the Top Note, I used a SU marker and followed the perferated lines all around. The strips under the Top Note, is Always Artichoke and Bashful Blue which are scalloped with the border punch. I then added the white decorative ribbon and Night of Navy ribbon. The stamp set I used is "Le Jardin Botanique" #113232. Inside of the card, I used the negative space from the Top Note, stamped it with "Itty Bitty Backgrounds" #114996, and the flower from "Le Jardin Botanique".


Be sure and leave a comment about the card, and thanks for stopping by, I appreciate your comments and your company!!!

  1. Great job, Denise! I love the saying with that stamp set. I like how you did the edging of the top note to make it stand out more. Like I have said before, I like how you always have a matching envelope to go along with it.
