If You're Sick of Red, Pink, and Black Valentines...

...why not try a tarty lime green and gray?


Pear Tart, by Memento, is my favorite green EVER, and now that I have the markers to go with the dew drop pads, I can edge a stamped panel, pop it up, and feel ever so clean and simple! 'Cause I've yet to find a cardstock to match this yummy shade of green....

Thanks for all the well wishes on yesterday's post. I'm chugging the cold medicine and eating lots of oranges and using my Vicks-infused Puffs. This too shall pass. Sooner rather than later would definitely be better.

Supplies
stamps: Papertrey Love Birds
ink: Memento
paper: Papertrey white
accessories: marker, dimensionals

  11. Great colors, one of my favs.

    Try using a nettie pot. As gross as it sounds, it does help.

  15. I never get tired of using red or pink, but I do like this unusual color combo too! It's great to step out of the comfort zone every now and then! Such a pretty C&S card!

  16. sigh ... I've said it before and I'll say it again: when I grow up I'd like to stamp like you!

    sorry to hear you're not feeling up to par!

    comfy jammies,
    cozy bed,
    big soft pillow
    for your head.
    worry not,
    the world can wait.
    take your time,
    recuperate!
