Happy Friday, peeps! I was excited to see the color challenge at Create with Connie & Mary (now at a "new" FB location) because it is so bright and cheery, it almost makes me forget I have a cold and the skies are still kinda gray! What do you think:
I also used the Freshly Made Sketches sketch:
These colors just seemed to fit with the images of the cute new set, Day at the Beach, so I did some stamping, punching, diecutting and coloring:
Each image was stamped in the challenge colors and colored with marker, blender pen and/or aquapainter! I used a sentiment from Suite Sentiments, the big sun from Kinda Eclectic and the horizontal element is from Butterfly Basics. Isn't it fun to mix and match elements from different sets?
And the inside sentiment is from Avant Garden:
Another card to add to my birthday stash!
Wayne brought home some amazing strawberries last night (he works for a wholesale produce company) and Cassidy decided to try a little trick she saw on her tablet from Life Hacks. She took a drinking straw and pushed it up from the bottom, through the strawberry, to take out the hull. It was a little tricky to get it pushed straight through; she needed some help from Mommy, but it worked!!
And she took a big bite out it before I could take a picture!!!
Enjoy your day and be blessed!

I just got this set last week and have done nothing. Yesterday I had a request to make 5 cards. Today you sent me the inspiration for at least three. Now I have to find two more challenges! I think "JAI" might be one of them...quite similar to "C & M". I might use "FMS" but not sure yet. Have a blessed weekend and get rid of that cold once and for all!
