Howdy, peeps! Today is Thursday, a.k.a. the day before Friday, and that's why we like it. And this week we like it so much that I made two cards :D
I was inspired to bust out By the Tide for the first time in a while because of this ridiculously cute set of cupcakes featured on Cupcake Inspirations:
I mean for reals, have you ever seen crabs so cute? I used Crumb Cake, Calypso Coral, and Island Indigo for the colors, and I also used the newest Freshly Made Sketch:
*cue cheesy TV announcer voice* But wait, there's more! I couldn't resist the color combination at The Color Throwdown:
So pretty, am I right? And I had to dig up my much-loved starfish stamp from By the Seashore to make this:
It's totally a starfish conga line. I used Tempting Turquoise, Pacific Point, and Tip Top Taupe as my colors and of course the same sketch as the first card. And both of these cards are flat, which means they're easy to mail. Which I should do. Who doesn't like getting pretty mail?
Ok, that's it for me today. I've got to go dream up what to do for tomorrow's Friday Flashback and maybe even work on baby books. Cheers, peeps!
