I can not believe it is Friday already! Where did the week go?
The colors in the Create With Connie and Mary Challenge were a little out of my comfort zone, but I love the way my card turned out. Calypso Coral is such a beautiful color and I really like Crumb Cake, but wasn't sure how to incorporate the Basic Grey. Then I remembered the Epic Day Designer Series Paper had all the colors required. Unfortunately, a sympathy card is always needed, so I went that direction. Hope you enjoy my card!
Also, wishing Connie and Mary and the Design Team CONGRATULATIONS on Challenge 300!!!! WOW! Thank you for all you do to offer these challenges!!!!
