Hi Friends! Just a quick post. I'm having a garage sale tomorrow...I haven't had one in 7 years, so I have totes and totes of kid clothes. Every little outfit makes me go "awwww." But I'm dreading the actual sale...all the pushing and grabbing--last time I had a garage sale, it was like a piranha tank. Wish me luck!
I'm entering a card into the Hero Arts July contest. I've never posted a HA card but thought it would be fun to enter a card into the Summertime theme:
The flower stamp is Hero Arts' Luscious Bold Flowers stamped in blue. I opted to use the Basic Grey Lauderdale tag for the sentiment instead of something more summery...I thought it worked well. The papers are Basic Grey Lauderdale and American Crafts Margarita. It's not traditional summer, but the colors look very tropical to me.
Okay, got to boogie....lots to do today. Have a great day!
Such a vibrant card Jocelyn!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing ~
Oohhh, this is gorgeous, Jocelyn! I'm so excited to see a Hero Arts card from you. The papers and sentiment are awesome together!
ReplyDeleteBest of luck with the garage sale. I love how you described it as a piranha tank. Yikes! LOL I hope you make lots of moola for craft supplies. ;D
amazing card.. I absolutely love the bright colors.
ReplyDeleteGreat job...Love it
Great card, Jocelyn, love the strong colours!
ReplyDeleteGreat card! Love the plaid and the polka dots together!
ReplyDeleteGood luck with your garage sale...hope the piranhas don't get you!
Great papers on this cute card.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the piranhas!
This is beautiful, love your colors.
ReplyDeleteThis is so beautiful Jocelyn...Its neat and I love the colors too...hugs..xoxo
ReplyDeleteSuper funky card Jocelyn! Love that plaid, it speaks all kinds of goodness to me! Good luck with your garage sale!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fabulous combo! You should enter more often!
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the sale. I hate them, so I end up just donating everything! I have not had one in 7 years and I said no way was I doing that again....Big Brothers and Big Sisters and AM Vets get my stuff.
Ooh, a garage sale -- good luck with that one! ;)
ReplyDeleteI love that Lauderdale paper -- it was so bright I shied away from it at first, but it's really quite beautiful -- as is your card!
Love this card! The colours totally scream summer to me.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the yard sale. I had one just before we moved cross-country in 2002, and I think that's pretty much going to be the only way I ever have another one. Piranha tank is a kind way of putting it :)
I really like this non-traditional take on a summery card -- it totally works for me! Hope the garage sale went well.
ReplyDeleteEEK! I love this!!! I just worked with this exact patterned paper last night!!! it's so fun - I love what you did with it!
