Mornin' y'all! Hope your week is going well. I have had so many ideas for cards swirling around in my little brain that yesterday I felt like I had a pack of overcaffeinated squirrels using my head as a gymnastics studio and I did something that turned out to be very smart: I got a piece of scratch paper and wrote down the card ideas I had swirling around. It was that simple. I didn't feel like I was going to forget a gymnastic squirrel while I worked on something else and I crossed off the top four or five of my ideas yesterday and I felt like I got so much accomplished! It was great, I was in the zone for sure. I'm hoping to tackle the second half of my list after I take Daphne for a walk, but first, let's talk today's card:
I've had some fun playing with the new Radiant Sunflowers suite but I had to pull out Celebrate Sunflowers for the AAA Birthday Challenge:
And that worked very well with this Color Dare Challenge:
I used Flirty Flamingo, Darling Duckling, and added Peaceful Pine. I could have gone with Calypso Coral and Daffodil Delight, but I use those colors a lot more so I thought I'd go for two colors I don't usually play with very often instead.
Daphne and I will be leaving for our daily walk shortly, which will hopefully make my tummy feel better. I woke up this morning craving chocolate cake, so once Ryan was off to school I made a chocolate mug cake because there's no one here to stop me doing things like that and it turns out I need someone here to stop me doing things like that because that was waaaayyyy too much this early in the morning. I am no longer craving chocolate cake, at any rate! Cheers, y'all.
