Enjoy the Moment . . . Smile

The House of Cards is back from a little summer break and we have a brand new super fantastic challenge for you.  I personally love inspiration pic challenges because you have so many possibilities to play around with.  This time I chose to go with the citrus colors (yum!) on my wildflower background.  I wasn't sure how the "Enjoy the Moment" sentiment would show up but I stamped it a couple of times using the MISTI to make it really bold.  Love!

The Details:  Hero Arts Pale Tomato, Orange Soda, and Everything Flower Background, Memento Dandelion, Recollections 110lb white and black cardstock, PTI Reasons to Smile and Mixed Messages sentiments, Memento Tuxedo Black, Simon Says stitched rectangle die

I'm entering this in Inkspirational #85 Wild, Addicted to Stamps and More! #151 Anything Goes, Crafty Cardmakers and More 141 sentiment, Virginia's View #16 100% Stamped

    That is gorgeous! Lovely use of the colour scheme and so perfectly and cleanly stamped too (something I struggle with). I’m really looking forward to working with you and seeing more of your beautiful projects Karen (new HOC DT)
