SHOPPING OUR STASH #358 - Summer Color Pallet


Hello friends and welcome!
Today starts a new challenge at
Yours truly is hosting, and I've picked
a Summer Color Pallet for you to design with: 


Here's what I came up with:


I thought the colors would work for a male themed birthday card.
For some reason, the dark blue seemed much darker when 
viewed from my laptop (which is in my craft room) than on the PC. 
Oh well. I also found that striped paper that had the orange/rust colors
already on it. Bonus!

Ready to play along? Of course you are! Be sure to link up your
project at Shopping Our Stash so we can admire it! For even more
ideas, simply visit the blogs of my teammies to see what they created!
Thanks for visiting!

(Yes, this is a crappy picture of us. I took off my hat and look, hat head! LOL!
If you've ever been to Arches NP, you'll know that it is a HIKE to get to this arch. 
It's sooooo worth it though!)

  6. Oh, love this card, nothing better than a cold beer on a hot Summer day, this are a couple of sweet little, foamy mugs.
    And yes, we've been to the Arches National Park with our granchildren and it's one heck of a hike, you must be careful though, there are some trails that have a bit of a dangerous drop, it was a bit nerve wracking to walk with the kiddos, but oh!!! so totally worth it!!!
    The picture is not crappy at all, it's fabulous, hat head and all!!
    Hugs.
