I'm so happy it's relaxing time.....I've been working very hard this week preparing for an upcoming garage sale, so we don't have to move all this stuff!!! We are ready to put our house on the market within the next two weeks..... so I've been cleaning and decluttering!!! I forgot how stressful moving can be and I definitely like to be prepared way in advance!!! We even had a showing yesterday and I hope we can sell our house before we put it on the market...but that's of course only wishful thinking - LOL!!!
Anyway - moving on to today's OCC Challenge......Joycelyn created this super awesome Sketch for us.
Since I didn't get to stamp very much this week I combined this card with a few different Challenges:
The colors were inspired by Stacey's awesome Curtain Call Color Challenge # 13 and the IC216 - Echo Challenge. I actually used this handbag as it fit's Stacey's colors perfectly!!! How cool it that ??? Next is the Moxie Fab World - Start to Finish and the C4C21 - Pretty in Pink.
My card is pretty straight forward.....I used my new fav SU Set *For All You Do*. The colors are - Pumpkin Pie, Melon Mambo, Basic Black and White.
All the flowers were raised up with Stampin' Dimensionals and I added Small Silver Pearls in the center. For the inside I used the butterfly from the same Set and added the Medium Silver Pearls.
I had many people asking me were I bought these Silver Pearls...they are a Michael's brand!!! Watch out they are highly addictive - LOL - but a must have!!!
Please stop by the OCC Blog to see all the wonderful Samples the team made!!!!
Have a great weekend and have fun playing along!!!
