Yes, I am done... with my taxes and I am glad it is over with. It is not a fun time and there are always few items on them that really irritates me to no end. Oh well, then I go to my studio and stamp my heart out.
And stamp I did. I went to work on the Splitcoast Stamper Sketch Challenge 533, narrow the base down to Sahara Sand, decided to take a look at color combinations and somehow got to the Create with Connie and Mary blog, they have the CCMC challenge 348 as a color challenge, and the rest of the colors was decided for me. Easy huh? The stamp set of choice here is the Butterflies Basics set and it had all the elements I wanted for this card. A bit texture on the Soft Sky card stock and my card is completed and pleasing to the eyes if I may say so.
