I scream, you scream ……

And we all know how that ends!!!  I decided I’d have another go at THIS card (the one I made for the current 10 Minute Craft Dash Challenge – still time to play if you pop along to Paulina’s blog, Pretty Pink Posh) but this time in pink.  I chose to use a cream card base rather than white as I did with the mint version and I think I actually prefer this one.  What do you think?  I wasn’t under any time pressure of course this time round, lol!  If you haven’t checked it out already then you need to mosey on over to Clearly Besotted – the August release (featuring the fabby stamp set above) is amazing!

Good Saturday morning to you all.  Not looking that nice out of the window here right now but that doesn’t matter, we have a lovely picture for you to look at here instead!  If this doesn’t make you feel full of the joys of Summer then I don’t know what will!!

Challenge 3 image

This month’s Clearly Besotted Challenge is asking you to take inspiration from this gorgeous colour palette – isn’t it yummy?  I couldn’t resist pulling out my favourite August release set again, So Sweet.  Seems perfect for this image and colour scheme.
