Nature's Inspiration

Hi There Blogger Friends!
I hope everyone is doing great on this fine Saturday. It's pretty lonely around my house as our oldest daughter moved away to attend graduate school. The oyounger daughter was home from college for a few short weeks but she's back to school taking summer classes. So you will likely see me around a lot more in the future.

My card today is for several challenges. The Splitcoaststampers Inspiration Challenge was a fun one where I chose this cute pendant as my inspiration.

I used the colors over on the Play Date Cafe Challenge.

I used the sketch from Retro Sketches. I wasn't too sure if this sketch would work with my idea, but I think it turned out just fine.

 

The last challenge was for the Simon Says Challenge where Simon said 'show us some texture". My Fleur de Lis embossing folder worked well, plus I always think distressing adds texture. 

Thanks so much for stopping!! Have a great day!

Marilyn
