Rainy Days and Mondays...

Good Morning, and Happy Memorial Day to all my fellow US citizens!

It has been windy, cloudy, and raining off and on all morning.  Every time I think it's going to clear up, the clouds roll in again.  Perfect day for stamping!  (My husband hopes the rain has stopped for the day; he drove to his brother's house and they plan to go golfing.  I think my odds of a good hobby day are better than theirs!

 The first card is for the Colour Me...! challenge.  I intended to pair it up with a SCS sketch, but opted to do this very quick design.  Why?  It's last minute, of course!

I already had this bermuda bay card base cut, folded and lined.  I must have planned to use it for a different project...long forgotten.  But it helped make this very quick!  I added a layer of so saffron.  On whisper white, I stamped swoshes from SU's "Work of Art" in the challenge colors.  I added this sentiment from SU's "All Holidays" along wit an old favorite silhouette image from SU's "Of the Earth."  Some pear pizzazz ribbon and non-SU enamel dots (forgot the brand) fill in a bit of the white space.   

Next, I have a card using the current SCS color challenge (hello honey, blackberry bliss, smoky slate, basic gray, and lost lagoon) along with the current Freshly Made Sketches challenge.  I took some liberties with the sketch (more layers!)

My card base is basic gray, with layers of slate, lost lagoon, and whisper white.  On the white, I stamped the 2-step image from SU's "Field Flowers."  I sponged the sun in the corner, sing a post-it to help me sponge some rays.  I added blackberry ribbon and the sentiment from the same stamp set.  The butterflies are from the SU embosslit. No fancy techniques, but I really like the final result.

Clouds are moving in again.  I should be able to get more cards made!
