Papertrey color inspiration #3


Today  - after cleaning my messy craft room I decided to play along with the Papertrey color inspiration #3


Color-inspiration-3

Those colors appealed to me as did this gorgeous inspiration picture. And here is the card that I came up with, using Papertrey 's Polka Dot Basics set and chalk inks. The sentiment is Hero Arts Fancy Script Messages (LL157). I put three little dots of Perfect Pearls next to the sentiment.




And guess what - Linky has expired, oh well. I still had fun making the card.


--X--

And to make this not so boring I am going to show you some pictures from a a walk I did near my house last Saturday after the big snowstorm. Of course most of this has melted away by now - how sad.






I hope you enjoyed this little excursion through winter wonderland. thank you for all your beautiful comments you are leaving on my blog - they always put a smile on my face!
