Happy "Hump Day". It's Wednesday after another history-making blizzard in Chicago and while my DH digs us out, I am sitting here creating away in my nice warm studio. The plow trucks haven't been thru our neighborhood yet, so there is no better place to be than here. Work was cancelled for all family members and the city is pretty much immobilized.
This card was created off of this week's color challenge at CR8FN. I love this combination of colors and have actually worked with them before. So, I was pleasantly surprised to see this week's colors and let out a squeel of joy! :)
DP's used are from scraps of SEI from a few years ago....I love when that happens! :) Die's, stamps, buttons and cardstock from PTI, twine from Martha Stewart, paper flower from Prima, misc. rhinestone adhesives.
Thanks for taking a peek........off to make my hubby some hot chocolate. Have a great day! Cathy XX :)
