Lily Pad Palette Challenge

Hello Friends, I can’t believe it’s Friday and already the summer is racing by. Somehow the older you get the faster time flies. I wish I had more time to visit your blogs and see all of the cards in Flickr. I thought I would during vacation but, that didn’t happen.

Peace Baby
Every month I have the privileged of selecting colors for  the Lily Pad Palette color challenge.
I hope you like the colors this month and I am always open for suggestions if you would like to share you favorite combos with me. I think you will love what the talented Lily Pad design team created with this color challenge here.

I love to sew and find it so relaxing and I try to incorporate sewing into my cards with a gel pen, or a sewing machine or the “Sew Easy”. Since I now own this mat and this tool I have been enjoying the look & ease of sewing by hand more often.

Don’t you love this digi image? It’s from Tickled Pink and this is the image I selected. After printing the image in “word” I colored it with Copic markers.  The sentiment was inked with Worn Lipstick and stamped. Sorry for the short post I must get back to stamping for CHA. Did you see the new Penny Black I am giving away?? Here it is or you could scroll down. As always I am so grateful you stopped by. Hugs, Kathy

P.S. Did any of you spot my card in “The Summer Card Camp 2011” yesterday??I would love to hear AND IF I oew you an email please be patient with me. Your understanding is so appreciated more than you know.

    Great card. I love the colour combo – the pinks are so pretty! I really like the Sew Easy tool and they have a couple newer piercer heads that I can’t wait to try (Hearts and Vines).
    I saw your card at Summer Card Camp and it is beautiful. The grass looked amazing! Thanks for sharing your technique on how to create that wonderful effect.

    Your “Summer Card Camp” card is amazing! Amazing coloring and attention to detail as always and I just can’t take out of my mind that sunny background! I have to try this yellow-orange sky sometime!

    Superb card Kathy. Your creativity and talent amaze me. Love your coloring. I wonder how you blended orange and pink copics. I wish I could see your summer camp card.

    Ana amazing composition & just perfect for the image – love your colouring of her outfit – so 60s. Your touches of white enamel are great & I like the stamped script on those letters.
    I know what you mean about time flying by……
