COLORING DOWN THE LINES WEDNESDAY MEETS MOJO MONDAY!!!

Hello Wednesday! Hello Coloring Down the Lines Blog Hoppers!! We have some fun colors this week. We got the "blues"!!! lol  And I'm posting this with a forecast that has potential tornadoes coming right when this post goes live! Here's hoping the weather people are once again wrong!!! Hope all of you did ok with this wild front moving across the country! It was like summer here today!!! I'll miss it for sure!!!!

Hello if you are here from Carol's lovely blog this week! Helen is on vacation! Be sure to continue onto Lizzy's cool blog!!!!!

Anyway, back to the hop! lol

My card this week:

The inspiration:

The Stampin' Up! colors as seen in MDS:

So this week's card is a non-trad wedding card! I had all ideas for these color, but I needed a wedding card for this week, so that's where I went! Not the norm in cards, but then again this couple is unique too! ;)

Was having troubles coming up with a design, so I went to one of my favorite design challenge sites, Mojo Monday!  Each week they give a different design. Here's this week's: 

I used my good ole' Pleasant Poppies stamp! It was kind of a non-trad flower for this non-trad card!!! The colors are different, but I think they work. I used my Stampin' Write Markers to color them in.

The design in the background looks like DSP, but it's simply 

Flowering Flourishes stamp set. Makes a nice background here!

The sentiment is Something to Say. I like how it has the inside/outside sentiments! 

Embossed the Elegant Eggplant with the Fancy Fan folder, and added some bling (Dazzling Details) because no wedding card would be complete without bling!!!

So hope you enjoyed! Be sure to hop around our little blog hop, and pop over to Mojo Monday & see what others have done with the design!

Congratulations Anna & Paul!!!

Happy Stampin'!!!

COLORING DOWN THE LINES!!!!

Happy Summer Coloring Down the Lines!!!  After a wet but successful 

4th of July, the heat is on here! Just the way I like it! As you get this, I hope to be sitting on a beach with my toes in the sand!!! 

So hello all you hoppers from Helen's amazing blog! How awesome is her card this week?! 

When you are through here you can hop over to Sandy's fantabulous blog! She is cooking this week! It's a small group this week, but talented! Keep going!!! Be sure to leave comments!!! It's so nice to hear from you all!!!

So here's the Design Seeds pic for this week (caw caw!):

And here are our MDS colors to complement:

And here's my baby!

For some reason it doesn't look green! It does when I look at the camera & on my upload! Oh well, trust me. The background is Pistachio Pudding! That color is growing on me!

The other 2 greens make up the "stems" from Flowering Flourishes! And of course Papillon Potpourri and punches round out the rest of the colors! That's the Ticket was used for the sentiment-with the Ticket Punch of course! 

This is really a cute, airy card in person! Very simple but I think it packs a gentle punch! I'm in the throws of "swap mania" as I prepare for Convention next week!!! So excited!!! But trying to get a handle on things! It'll all happen tho! Don't you worry! 

So hope you like this week's entry in our little blog hop! It's a cool summer breeze blowing your way!!!

Happy Stampin'!!!!
