Life Is Good

In spite of all the troubles, both big and small, life is still good. DH is having a rough couple of days right now, but with God's help, we'll weather it just fine. Before he got up this morning, I made a couple of fairly quick cards. The first one will go into the 2017 Summer Coffee Lovers Bloghop as my second entry. As part of a goodie package, Helen Gullett sent a few panels and I waited until now to use this one:

My Coffee Card:

So I grabbed my Copics and like a second grader, I colored to my heart's content. The sentiment is from a Studio Calico set, and all I did was to add a black panel behind it and toss a couple-three minty sequins. EZPZ. Thanks, Helen!

Next up is a card for a somewhat new-to-me challenge, Sunday Stamps. This color palette is right up my alley, and I wanted to get a card made and play along. See what you think...

Mine uses the pinks, green, and yellow:

The stamps are all Altenew, from two different sets, and while those funky blooms have leaves and stems in the set, I chose to let them float. And though you can't tell from my poor-at-best photography skills, the flowers are actually two, albeit only slightly, different pinks. *sigh* Still, I like how this came out. And since I have to pop in and check on the DH, I will wish you all a wonderful weekend, and for those in the US, a blessed 4th of July. As always...
