thank you

Good Morning! I was inspired to start making shape cards and this is my second one. I've used the colors of the JUGS challenge, although not a lot of gray. Gray is absent in most of my scraps, buttons, bits of ribbon and such. I do have gray ink which was so light I combined it with a light brown ink so that you could read the sentiment. There's a bit of gray in my vintage shell buttons too:) My coral looks a bit pink too...ah well! Aside from my color "challenges"....this was a fun card to make. I kept adding and setting it aside, picking it up again and adding more, etc. Sometimes that is just my favorite way to create:)

Have a GREAT day! Stay COOL!

So cute! I create in the same way. Usually when I'm making something the ideas don't come all at once. Great job. :)
