Hello Monday. I’m not sure if I’m quite ready for you to be here yet. I’d like to relax just a bit longer before I need to delve into another week. It’s gonna be a busy one. Lots to get done. Lots I need to accomplish in a short amount of time. So, really, I guess it’s good you’re here, Monday. You’ll be gone before I want you to be, so I’d better hang on and enjoy you while you’re here. Heaven knows in a few days I’ll wish I had you back!
Today I have a couple of cards I made for the Embellish color + birthday challenge.
These colors are not ones I would have necessarily put together on my own, but I did really like them once I started working with them. I enjoy working with colors that often get ignored, and these brights are some that definitely haven’t seen much love from me lately.
This one was hard to photograph because of its unique size. Click on it to view it larger.
