Remember yesterday when I said Debbie and I challenged ourselves to use papers that weren't our favourites.
Well here is my card.
I really think it turned out great.
Orange is not my first choice in colour. Funny that I have made 2 orange cards in the last year and both are one of my favourites :)
I guess this is more of a peach colour then orange.
Don't you hate when you take a perfect photo, then upload it to the computer and its crooked.
I used one of the mini Magnolia images and coloured he up with my Copics.
I added a bit of sparkle with a clear Spica pen.
I finished all of the inside of my cards as well.
Most of the time I am so excited to move on to the next card, I forget to do the inside.
But one of my goals is to totally complete my cards. That way when I need one, I just have to grab one, write a note inside and send it on its way :)
So my girlfriend and I are going back to Mink Mountain in August as we always do.
We have tried out all the cottages that fit our needs, so the problem we have now is to try and decide which one we want.
What a problem to have, lol.
I really hope you had even one ounce of fun and creativity that I did this weekend.
Tracy :)

ReplyDeleteLove the way you are reminded of the bubbles when you see the circles of the background.
ReplyDeleteThe image is so sweet.
Glad you had fun.

ReplyDeletelove this sweet card!
ReplyDeleteVery cute - love the orange!
ReplyDeleteI have to say, that is a really cute stamp! The little sparkle is such a cut touch!
ReplyDeleteOrange is not one of my favorite colors either -peach is OK though. I'm not very good at finishing off the inside of my cards either, but I'm also trying to do better about that as well.
What a great idea for a challenge! Adorable stamped image on a very pretty card.
ReplyDeleteVery cute. The dress color match the card nicely.
ReplyDeleteI love the challenge you gave yourselves! The stamp is beautiful.
ReplyDeletePretty! Awesome that you worked outside your comfort zone!
ReplyDeleteLove the paper on this one, great color! Such a cute image also :0) I need to finish the inside of some of my cards, bad habit. I actually never did the inside until I started following you :0D Thanks! Hugs!
ReplyDeleteI love how your orange-peach card turned out. I think I need to be creative today. Totally pooped out after working the weekend.
ReplyDeleteShe is so cute... Love the colors you chose to color her... Cute card.. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteYour card is awesome! I think orange is a hard color to work with. I love that image!!!! She looks so cute and the glitter is perfect! I'm glad you had such a great time and if you have to have a problem, that's the one to have! :)
ReplyDeleteVery lovely card, Tracy! Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteI love this card, and I'm like you orange is not my favorite color. I live in TN, but I am an Alabama fan (born there)but my BF is a HUGE TN fan, and their colors are orange and white! LOL Love Penny Scrap-aholic@blogspot.com
ReplyDeleteI don't use orange that much either but I love it when other people use it! :) This card is adorable. I love your coloring - as always!
ReplyDeleteLove the cards, and am jealous of Canada's "Family Day." What is the history behind that? I have started planning my annual scrap weekend with friends in August as well, isn't it fun? There are usually 10 of us in a quaint bed & breakfast, we talk, sing, watch movies, drink wine, drink coffee on the porch, and oh yeah, SCRAP! Tons of fun, I wouldn't miss it.
ReplyDeleteYikes I have missed so much. I need to get a way of getting your blog in my email so I know when you post. I love this. I didn't know there were mini Magnolias. I only have two or three but I sure think they are sweet. I really love this one and the way you used it.
ReplyDeleteWow, this card is awesome! And you did a great job coloring! I have great difficulty photographing things and getting them straight!
