Marvelous Monday!



What a gorgeous spring day with temps up to 83 degrees! So happy to be off work to truly enjoy it. The CAS challenge on SCS was to use soft aqua, soft yellow and white on a card. I found this Webster's Pages DP with a gorgeous aqua print to match in my stash...but...some of the flowers were peach instead of yellow. No problem...nothing that a light yellow Copic marker can't fix - lol! I used the Card Patterns Sketch 109 for the layout with some minor tweaking. The sentiment was stamped on a Labels Twenty-One Nestie then sponged while still in the die using Barely Banana ink. Now that is an ink pad that rarely sees the light of day in my stamp room, but worked perfectly for this challenge.
STAMPS: Happy Hello (Verve)
PAPER: Webster's Pages, Neenah Solar White
INK: Versafine Onyx Black
ACCESSORIES: MS butterfly punch, Yellow adhesive pearls, MS seam binding, Labels Twenty-One Nesties, CB, Large scallop border punch by EK Success.
