CR84FN25 Hello Friend...

Happy Easter everyone!

I can't believe it, but today is my last gig as a Guest Designer over at Mona's fabulous CR84FN Color Challenge! I had a blast and I want to thank Mona and her fabbo team for inviting me this month! THANK YOU LADIES!!! I will continue stalking you :) all!!!

Of course, Mona has chosen another to die for color theme...check it out....


Here is my idea....



I just received my new PTI order and of course I had to show of my favorite Stamp Set from this months release. As soon as I saw all the awesome ideas from the Chevron Stripes I knew I had to have it...I thought it one pretty groovy background stamp..LOL!  The colors I used are SU Bermuda Bay and Poppy Parade Ink. I simply added a doily in the background and inked the new PTI Think Big Favorite sentiment onto the Label 17 Spellbinder Die and embellished the card with some matching Ribbon, Prima Flowers and some matching Gems.

Please make sure to check out the CR84FN team for all their fabulous ideas on this color combo ~ Mona, Heather, Stephanie, Sue, Andrea, Suzanne, Deborah and Lisa.

Thank you for stopping by today! Wishing you a wonderful Sunday and I hope you get to spend some fun times with your families! I'll be back again on Tuesday hosting the FTTC105 Challenge...hope to see you then!!! Hugs ~S~

This is so pretty, Silke. Your Chevron stipes are fab. I didn't order anything from PTI this release. That doesn't happen often.
