Hello, here in PA we were having a heat wave. It hit 70 yesterday and was very nice this morning.
My daughter and I headed to town with the puppies and caught a few Pokemon. Then we had brunch at a little bagel shop on main street. We were in just long sleeve T-shirts. This afternoon, the temperature has dropped and its pouring rain and gusty winds. So much for an early spring!
I needed a Birthday card for a family friend so I took the opportunity to play along with the PTI blog hop challenge and came up with this card.
I used a combination of Garden Gate Kit, Don't Forget To Write Kit, Make it Market Mini Kit Color Pop Butterflies and last years Anniversary set.
I found these colors very hard to photograph and stay true to the actual colors.
The purple is much darker then it appears on my computer.
But I think the card turned out just so pretty.
