Spring Colors for You

Spring Colors for You

It's early March and warm in S. CA.  The kids are swimming in the (non-heated) pool. I personally think they are crazy.  Kids will be kids, right?  

 I am looking forward to using these lovely, cheery, bright colors.  I must admit, I did try to make a video making this card.  Let me just say, don't ask.  I will try again tomorrow (or tonight, who knows!). 

The circle scribble and sentiment are from Papertrey Ink.  The stitched circle is from Lil Inker (absolutely love these!).  The pink with white dots is paper that I purchased at Michael's.  It's thin paperweight and crinkles easy.  I say that because I don't always have success putting on adhesive to thin strips of paper.  I actually cut this  2 inches wide and laid the orange and pink cs on top.  Can't tell, huh?  I'm tricky that way!  I would love to say that I know the name of the sequins I get from Pretty Pink Posh, but I don't.  I do know that I got these from Paulina.  She has an awesome selection and outstanding customer service. I felt the card needed just a little more black to balance it out, thus the line next to the pink and white dot paper.

I am entering this in Retro Sketches #156 Challenge

  1. Hi, I saw your card over at retro sketches and just had to stop by. I love the bright colors on your card. Great trick on the pink paper to keep it from wrinkling. I am still seeing snow on the ground (starting to melt) so if I was on a holiday there I would be in the pool with my kiddos too.
