A Day Spent Crafting

Yesterday I actually felt like crafting. Since our daughter's wedding I just haven't had any interest in crafting. I've made a few things here and there but not like I used to. I used to spend most of my free time crafting. I got up yesterday and checked to see what was going on with my favorite challenges in hopes of finding something that would get me going. Well...I actually spent most of my day crafting and it felt so good! Here is one of the many cards I made yesterday. I made this card for the Dynamic Duos and CAS(E) this Sketch challenges.


I attached the Calypso Coral flower to my card with foam tape and the So Saffron flowers with my dots. Love doing this combo..adds such a great touch to the card.

The colors:
The sketch:

Thanks for stopping by. For those waiting for pictures of the wedding I promise they are coming. I'm putting together a slide show of my favorite ones. :)

Blessings,
Deanna Jean

Supplies:
Stamps: Papertrey Ink Cutting Garden, Mum's The Word & Mini Blooms
Inks: Stampin' Up! So Saffron, Calyso Coral & Crumb Cake

    I would say that you probably deserved a bit of a crafting break after the wedding....but you are back in full swing with this gorgeous creation! Love it!
