I am lagging behind this week. This card was done for last week's color challenge, So Saffron, Wild Wasabi and Purely Pomegranate. I actually started this card before I saw the color challenge in just yellow and green. I cuttlebugg'd the green panel and stamped the flower image from Happy Harmony. I punched the side twice with the horizontal slit punch and tied the ribbon. I matted it with a panel of Pomegranate cardstock. I added the ribbon and matted the whole thing on a So Saffron cardstock panel and stamped the sentiment. I love the colors together, but don't know if I like this card or not.

I also go my Papertrey order this week with the new Aqua mist cardstock and this Green Thumb set. I love it. It is so versatile and can be used for so many things. Aqua and Brown are two of my favorite colors right now and I love how they came out in this card. I stamped the background with the two Dandelion flowers in Aqua Mist and Chocolate Chip. I stamped the boot and flowers in aqua mist and the trim pieces in Chocolate Chip. The stems and leaves are mellow moss. I then matted them and added the brown satin ribbon. I love this card. I made it for a couple of girls who really helped me out last week.

And finally, I just got my Stampin Up order today. I love my demo. She always comes up with the greatest projects for her classes. When my order arrived today, she included a free set (For a Friend) Which is a hostess set and I would never qualify for. I am so psyched!!! I wanted to make a thank you card for her with the set, so I put this together for her. I used my new Summer Picnic DSP. I stamped the image in Bashful Blue, Real Red and Old Olive, matted the image with a panel that has three red flower eyelets (Making Memories) and tied it with blue ribbon. I love how coordinate the paper makes everything look. Her cards are always gorgeous, so I hope she likes this.
