In and Out

I'm in and out today. You should see my craft room... It's totally trashed, so I'm posting a card quick and then getting to the mess. Hmmmm....I have no idea whatsoever who came in and did this! Must have been the DH. Certainly wasn't me! Before I get to the card, I'd like to thank all of the voters over at Muse. My CASE of Michele's card made the top three, and I'm tickled that you liked it! It's a great challenge, and the DT is full of talented and sweet crafters.

So have you heard it's Fusion's second birthday? Congrats and happy blogaversary! Head over to check it out and play along too. In a minute....


Just had to join in the celebration. This started out as something totally different; eventually I made this:


I tried to do chevrons. Didn't work. Kept to the colors though, and at least the ghost of the sketch. Green PTI ink, a NBUS SC die in bright pink, and yellow and white dp. A sprinkling of bright pink bling things, an MFT fishtail die,  and a N&T sentiment. That's it for now. Happy dances everyone!

OH MY, Bev, there is SO MUCH to love on this absolutely darling card.
I always love flowers, stripes, & dots.
AND, the colors work so beautifully together.
Fabulous take on the challenge!

I'd love to know who makes that darling flower die.
I sure love it!
You mentioned "SC", but I can't figure it out.
Could it be South Carolina? ;-)

Have a lovely day!

Kylie said...

Can't tell you how much I love this card - it is pure happiness! The beautiful pink against the white and yellow - swooooon! Just love it! That is all I can say. :)

Martha said...

Hi, Bev. YAY, I found it! I was looking on your blog for this sweet card. I finally was able to get this lovely Studio Calico set that you sold me on. I wanted to come back to look at the beauty you created with the set. Thanks for the inspiration!

I recently sent you an email asking about this card, but the email could have possibly gone to your Spam mail.
