DCBD 149 & CTD 64


Good Morning!

I hope everyone is well today. Our weather is back to normal! The bitter cold has moved on! Yea! I have combined two challenges for my card today. The sketch is from Diva Coffee Break Designs and the color combo is from Color Throwdown. My card base is chocolate chip, layered with baha breeze and sahara sand. My dp is windsor knot and manchester. The stamped image is from Of the Earth.

I have a new routine for stamping. I used to stamp all weekend and make enough cards for the week of posting. Now I am checking challenges on a daily basis and creating a card each evening. It helps keep my juices flowing by stamping everyday.

Have yourself a great day!
Patti

Oh wow! Beautiful! I love the addition of the border punch. This card reminds me of a dress my mom had in the 60s. Aqua on top and brown on the bottom. I always loved that picture of her in that dress and I guess that's why I love this color combo! Thanks for playing the Color Throwdown!
