Colour Me Retro

Today is one of 'those' days. I haven't been able to get

my act together - I've been late to everything today. Time for a cuppa

chai tea and some quiet stamping time.

I love the color challenge at Colour Me...! this week. Coastal Cabana

and Hello Honey with a neutral. I chose to pair them with Crumb Cake and

Whisper White.  The sketch at Retro Sketches this week was intriguing to

me because it was a square card and that is not something I ever do.

I am loving my Bordering Blooms stamp set from Stampin' Up! It's so versatile.

 I've been using it for so much more than borders on a card. 

I didn't have any dsp left with those colors so I made my own by using  

two of the border stamps to create the background - I love how it

turned out. I did have some hello honey colored cardstock and dsp. I 

combined that with some crumb cake and used my Autumn Accents die

to make some leaves. I crumpled them up and sponged them up a little,

tied them with some baker's twine, stamped a greeting with coastal

cabana and then called it a day.

Time now for another cuppa chai!
