I must say, I am enjoying that Owen takes a longer nap in the afternoon and that I am home now to enjoy time with him, but also time to get in touch with my crafty spirit. With that said, I was bit by the challenge bug once more. I can't help but be in love with CAS-ual Fridays blog of simplicity and cool challenges. This week's challenge (CFC107)was to use arrows on the card. I love their use of Hunger Games analogy for this challenge.
I have been deeply in love with Stampin' Up's Calypso Coral and Pool Party for quite a while now. So in love, in fact, that I purchased paint to repaint both of our bathrooms each of these two colors. Our main bathroom is now Calypso Coral and I believe looks reminiscent a Mexican restaurant (but that's another story completely.) I used Island Indigo, Calypso Coral, and Pool Party to create this fun, playful "Hey Y'all" card.
On a side note, my sister and I are northerners, but have been fascinated by southern cooking and the friendly attitude of people who live in the south. I am especially in love with the phrase "Y'all" since it breaks an English teacher's heart for being grammatically incorrect, but just too darn sweet.
I love the way you balanced the card elements!
ReplyDeleteThis is gorgeous! Pool Party is one of my favorite colors and my craft room is painted a color similar to pool party. When I saw your card I assumed you were southern and one of my people. We vacationed in southern Georgia this year (Paula Deen country!) and I came back more southern than I started. LOL
