My DT friend Tui Nathan designed the sketch this week at Freshly Made Sketches. Tui is from Australia and this summery card using Calypso Coral, Berry Blossoms DSP and flowers from Simply Soft is made with thoughts of Tui as she heads into summer. We in the Northeast are well aware of what is coming our way after two October snowstorms - and it is not summer! I also love exchanging e-mails with Tui - she says good morning and when I answer back I end with good night. She greets the day 13 hours before I do! Reminds me of the Beatles song........I don't know why you say good-bye......I say hello.......
Linda what a pretty card. I'm loving FMS site and just have to get on the ball to play along. I think I finally figured out the day the 'new sketch' comes along, daahhh.. but either way the i LOVE the samples from the DT. Hugs.
ReplyDeleteThis is so pretty and I love the spring colors! Perfect to brighten anyone's day (especially those who are facing the snow). I love that flower!
ReplyDeleteLinda, this is a lovely card! Just what we need after the last weekend's storm, too! Thanks for brightening our day!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous card. I love that DSP paired with the stamp. I love the way you used the linen thread on the ribbon, too. Your Goodbye/Hello made me laugh. I have to parrots, and when one says Hello or Goodbye, the other always says the opposite, so that Beatles song is constantly in my head! :)
ReplyDeleteSo pretty, Linda! I love your ribbon treatment on this one!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card Linda! Great colors, love the bouquet of flowers and i adore those little bows.
ReplyDeleteAhhhh, beautiful spring colors (instead of all the white I see out my window)! Love the dimension you added to the flower too. Very pretty card! Hope you are well! Missing my pals!
ReplyDeleteLinda, thanks for your kind comment on my blog. I came to visit yours, and my eyes could not get enough of your beautiful work. I love this card - the colors are wonderful and the DP really gives it a big POP! The ribbon treatment is wonderful. Just lovely.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous, Linda! I love this DSP! I can't wait to try this sketch!
ReplyDeleteGotta love this card!! The flowers are just too cute and a perfect match for the DSP not to mention the fantastic job with the ribbon.
ReplyDeleteThis is gorgeous! I love the spring colors and the way you popped up those flowers. Now,I want to know, is it possible to skip winter entirely and go to spring?
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful card Linda! Those flowers look 3D!
ReplyDeleteLOVE this Linda! That paper is so fresh and you've done a great job featuring it here...love the ribbon treatment too!
ReplyDeleteYour card is so bright and cheerful, very pretty.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous card, Linda. Love the combination of image and dsp you used here as well as the "extra" you always add. Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThis is stunning, love the bright colours!
ReplyDeleteWow! I like this a whole bunch, Linda! THat DSP never really spoke to me...until today. Now it's telling me that I need to have it. Haha! I love the twine accents you added to the ribbon. It adds so much to the desgn. Hope to have a chance to play along with y'all this week! Hugs! :)
ReplyDeleteOh you are super sweet my friend ...
ReplyDeleteI always have a little giggle when I greet you with a good morning and I receive a goodnight in response ... so funny!
Fabulous card as always Linda, this is such a lovely stamp set and I am yet to do justice to it ...your flowers look great in 3d and that patterned paper is so pretty and definitely a day brightener!
What a lovely card. The colors are stunning! It made me happy!
ReplyDeleteYour card is so bright and happy, just what I needed to see on this cloudy Monday :) I love that paper! It's so funny to email back and forth with online friends, really makes you realize there is more out there than just our tiny little world/community. Good for us, right :)
