OLD OLIVE COLORING DOWN THE LINES!

So have ya missed me?? I just got back from vacation in York Beach, Maine! Beautiful beach days!!! I wouldn't have come back if I didn't have to!!! lol I soooo love the beach! I had planned to get some posts done while I was here but the wifi at the hotel was down! Oh well! Forced me to relax & enjoy!

So here we are! Those hopping over from Helen's blog, glad to see you-again?!!!  Hope all is well & it was a delightful trip from Blue Dahlia! She makes it an easy ride!!

So the colors this week are 
   Old Olive, Pumpkin Pie, Cherry Cobbler
       OR
   Old Olive, Soft Suede, Crushed Curry

I chose the second group because the first kinda makes me think of Christmas, & I'm soooo  not ready to go there yet!! lol! I want to stick with the summer for as long as I can!
So the second batch of colors gave me an idea! Here it is!



It's a fairly simple card, but I think it's kinda cute!
I used Hello Lovely stamp set that I got at convention & made a sorta version of a sunflower! It's really just a few circle punches & framelits! Add the Tulips Embossing Folder & some 1/8" Old Olive Taffeta ribbon! Its sorta like a sunflower!!! lol It's just a cutie!

Here's a closeup of the flower part!!! I like the googlie eyes! That's the way I feel most days!



Now go head over to Liz's great blog & check out how she played with the colors! Gorgeous I'm sure!! I'll see ya there!

Now that I'm back in wifi land, I can get back to my postings! There's so much going on with the new Holiday Catalog finally live!!! Be sure to get your goodies!!! You don't wanna miss a thing in this one!!! 
Plus, I still have all the amazing convention stuff to share!!! 
So it's all coming!!!

 Happy Stampin'!!!
