JUGS Colour Challenge

Hey there ...
Almost the end of the week and weather wise we've had quite a good one though it's overcast and cloudy right now

My lovely blog friend Keren and I got together for coffee yesterday and I took her to our new coffee shop which is part of a farm nearby ... It also has a shop selling the local produce and some sweet vintage goods as well. It was so lovely to catch up though we never have enough hours to talk!


This weeks challenge at Just Us Girls is a colour challenge and I just love the palette


... and I'm lovig the ombre digital papers by Pink Petticoat which I used for my card - I printed the cool aqua straight onto white cardstock


The chevron paper is by My Minds Eye and the words die cut paper is a digital by Sara Schmutz from Design House Digital


Flowers, lace, tulle and burlap etc., are all from my supplies and I added a strip of Washi Tape to the top of the card ...
I think these colours are so very soothing don't you?


Hop over to their blog ... the DT have made some lovely cards

On another note I've been watching the bees in my garden ... they are so busy right now ... I'll share some photos with you soon ...

Have a wonderful day and thanks so much for stopping by
