Color Throwdown Challenge #296


Hello everyone....hope you are all surviving the summer heat so far!!! My hubs brought home another 7-8 gallons of green beans from the garden so we canned several pints and quarts yesterday. It's a lot of work but they taste sooo good!!! Anyway....it's Wednesday again and that means we have another Color Throwdown Challenge for you!! This week Lori brought us such a soft and pretty combo...hope it inspires you to play along!!!


My card features the sentiment stamp from Taylored Expressions Big Bold Thanks set...it was stamped on the Label Stacklets 8 diecut and popped up on foam dots.  The flowers were cut out with the TE Bugabee Flower dies and then embossed with the Dotted Swiss embossing folder. The leaves were cut out with the TE Leafy Branch die....


and the washi tape, enamel dots, and the thread finish it off.
