Back in Blogland!

Yes, I'm finally back! I just got my taxes submitted today so I was able to stamp for a bit. I still have a BIG weekend ahead with my kids' First Communion and a house full of guests, but I had to get some stampin' in! This is for today's color challenge on SCS as well as this week's Mojo Monday sketch.

The color challenge was to use Pink Pirouette, Bording Blue and So Saffron. I really struggled with the Saffron- I just don't like that shade with the pink so I snuck it in with a tiny brad! The sketch was fun and makes a pretty clean & simple card if you want. I used vellum for my top layer as well as the bottom layer of scallops. Embossed the "LOVE" image with Bordering Blue craft ink and clear EP, then colored in with Watercolor Wonder Crayons and a blender pen. The background is stamped with white ink and the trio of hearts from this stamp set.

Thanks for hanging with me after such a long delay! I do like to post everyday but just couldn't get to it over the holiday weekend. Tomorrow I will have a new Diva challenge for you as well as this week's Clean & Simple challenge on SCS.
