Have a Sprite (Or Two)

Mornin' y'all!  I actually got in my craft room yesterday, finally wrote out this week's cards (usually I send them out on Monday so I was running late this week), and then I got to make something, woohoo!  I am looking forward to Ryan having a longer camp next week, this week I have about an hour and a half at the house between when I drop him off and when I go pick him up, and sometimes it's hard to get things done when the day is broken up like that.  But I shall persevere!

In the meantime, here's my card:

Heyyy I used an image from Summer Happiness that is NOT the sunglasses, or the sun!  Yay!  After I made this card, I did wonder if I should have used more Lemon Lime Twist, so then I made this one:


What do you think, the Coastal Cabana DSP or Lemon Lime Twist?  Either way, this layout was great for using up some smaller scraps of DSP, and a couple of long skinny scraps of Basic Black cardstock so that's a win.  I used the sketch from CAS Colours & Sketches:


The images in Summer Happiness are the perfect size for this sketch in my opinion, so maybe I'll go back and make a few more cards.  I haven't used the cherries yet.  For today's duo, I love the color combination from TGIF Challenges:


I really want to make a black card with bright pops of the other two colors now.  Maybe I'll have time to get that done after I take Daphne for her walk and before I drop Ryan off at horse camp.

Aww man, I'm out of tea, so no matter what I have to get up now.  Have a great day, peeps!
