Color Outside the Lines...

Hello! Hope you are all having a wonderful day - TGIF!!!

I had a little time today, and decided to do a card for the Tuesday Trigger challenge. Here is the inspiration photo:


And here is my card:



I was totally inspired by these colors. I used to sew, and cross stitch, and have threads in so many of these colors! How much fun to play along this week :)

Thanks Cath for another fun image!

I just used some CS scraps, a Martha Stewart bubble punch, and a TAC sentiment. Hope the fabulous rainbow of colors brought you a smile! I am also entering this in the CAS-ual Friday's challenge, which is Colorblocking.

Have a great Friday night!

Hugs and blessings,
Patti J.

Food for thought: Worry doesn't help tomorrow's troubles, but it certainly can ruin today's happiness!!!

LOVE that you punched each strip and then used the punched dots at the bottoms. Such a perfectly thought out card. Thanks for playing along at CAS-ual Fridays this week.
