Mornin' y'all! Bit of a later start today as the kiddo is off of school today (why) and I was slow getting up and moving this morning. I only did a short yoga session for a workout but I think even just that little bit helped me set up to feel good today : ) It's a beautiful sunny day too so Ryan and I will be taking Daphne out for her neighborhood tour when I finish writing this.
So here is today's card:
I pulled out a retired In Color and some retired DSP for this one. Here is this week's Freshly Made Sketch:
And this week's Color Throwdown:
I'm sad I missed out on playing in the challenge prior to this one but I'm glad I got play this week. I used Rococo Rose (the retired In Color), Lost Lagoon, and Darling Duckling. I chose that plaid pattern out of the Inked Botanicals Stack (I'm a sucker for a good plaid) and it wasn't until I was putting the whole card together that I realized it's more Pool Party with Lost Lagoon lines. Well, I'm calling Pool Party and Lost Lagoon different values of the aqua shade on the challenge graphic.
This also fits in with the Paper Players challenge this week, there's two more hours left until the challenge closes!
Okay, time to go walk the Daphinator. Have a great day, peeps!

This is pretty Christy - I love the pop of yellow from the circle that the flower sits on. I think you have a great knack for mixing and matching patterns too - the whole thing looks great against the plaid. Hope your Daphne walk today was a good one!
I love what you've done combining the colors with the sketch! The flowers are lovely - and so eye-catching on the colors and patterns behind them. Thank you for playing along with us at Freshly Made Sketches.
Christy, I love all the patterns you've pulled together - I also love a plaid! - these sure look 'meant to be together' to me, and perfectly wonderful singing backup to your lovely bloom in Kim's Sketch.
Thanks so much for joining us again at FMS!
