SLEEPY SUNDAY SYNDROME

It's already 1:30 on Sunday afternoon and I don't feel as if I've accomplished much of anything- even though I've been busy all morning! I cleaned the kitchen, vacuumed the floors, straightened the house, made a card, called Farm & Fleet re: auto repair AND showered. So why then is the house STILL a mess and I haven't posted my card? It's just that sleepy Sunday syndrome I guess.
The card I created today uses only Stampin'Up! products. A Sizzlits, "Swirls & Scribbles" was cut from Mellow Moss and used as a flower stand for SU!'s Bloomin' Beautiful vase of flowers. In choosing colors I used Whisper White and Cameo Coral, Chocolate Chip and Mellow Moss. The DP is really just a strip of Chocolate Chip cardstock to which I added dots using a white Gel Pen from Stampin' Up!. I used the BigShot and the Top Notes Die to cut the Cameo Coral background. The main image was stamped in Jet Black Stazon onto Watercolor Paper then colored using Blush Blossom, Pretty in Pink, Cameo Coral, Close to Cocoa, Chocolate Chip, Creamy Caramel, Mellow Moss and Old Olive Markers.

It took a while to figure out the layout I liked best - but once I figured that out the rest of the card went together quickly.

Hope you enjoyed the post today. Enjoy YOUR sleepy Sunday - whether you're working, playing or napping.
