Happy Sunday everyone~

I hope your weekend has been wonderful so far. I know exactly what we are doing today…watching Daytona 500 on TV!! (it would be absolutely thrilling if we are in Daytona though)

Although it’s nothing related with NASCAR, I have one card for Curtain Call Color Challenge {ACT70} It is such a fun color combo to play! I hope you will have a time to join us :)

 

Here is my card with the color combo.

SONY DSC

I used stamps from Just For Fun Stamps. Their faux postage stamps & templates are so fun and easy to make a scene like this. After I stamped the frame, I used the matching template and just inked each color inside the frame with blending tools. Then I stamped the silhouette palm trees image. The saying was trimmed closely with scissors and attached on the ric rac tape ribbon. To finish off, I embellished with rhinestones.
