Tie the Knot Tropical Wedding CARD, cQc#182, pp139

Love this stamp set Tropical Party, unfortunately it's retired.  My daughter recently went to a wedding in Hawaii and so I made her a quick Spring Hawaiian Wedding card where I did some brayering and sponging.  Played along with the ColourQ Challenge #182 with their "LOVE" ly color palette: Always Artichoke, Wisteria Wonder, Lucky Limeade, Pool Party and The Paper Players Tic TacToe Challenge 139 where I picked a Ribbon,Tag and Spring.

Using Tropical Party I have another version here on my blog. Such a fun card to create.

 

All supplies Stampin' Up! ... unless noted.

Spring Break with The Paper Players and my most Exciting News!

Woohoo!! Can I just tell you how excited I was to be asked to be a guest designer on The Paper Players blog this month! This talented group of girls invited me to join them.  Big thanks to Lesley, Ann, Jaydee, LeeAnne and Nance. 

So, the first inspiration challenge of this month is a theme challenge ... Spring has Sprung.  

I made this card for a very nice Hawaiian family who deserve a Surf's Up!  I wanted to create something bold, bright, fun and happy.  I brayered the sky, sponged around the outside of the card and masked in the sunrise.

It's time for a Spring Break!
