Hello friends. It has been a little cooler in Southern CA for the past few days; but it is supposed to get hotter again by Friday. How is your weather where you live? Are you having time to create?
I haven't been able to create much lately. It is challenging when you are in pain; but I finally managed to get this one done in time for my DT on Monday. It is lavender and grays, despite the fact that it looks blue. LOL!
I am using the new CTMH Basic Paper Fundamentals; which I fell in love with; the minute I saw them. I don't normally like grays and browns; but this set of papers is absolutely stunning to me. We have all new Basic cardstock in this new Annual Inspirations Idea book; plus all of our cardstock is two colors. You will notice that I used the reverse side of my cardstock; as those are the new colors.
It is time for another Ching-Chou Kuik Inspiration Post. I am using a new image called "Believe In Faith". I thought this image was beautiful; but my card didn't quite reach what I had visioned for it. LOL!
