Hello! Today's card was inspired by a card that's been sitting in my "Favorites" folder over at SCS for
years. Seriously, years (
here). The little nudge I needed to actually make this card came from my
Stampin' Up! upline and the monthly card challenges we host on Stampin' Connection (a website only available to SU demos, just one of the perks of working for SU!).
Our challenge this month was a thank you card with embossing and at least one embellishment. Immediately this card came to mind. I changed the colors to reflect my current favorite (Calypso Coral) and chose a different sentiment.
In case you're wondering, the embossed part of my card is the stripes! I used Natasha's
Gingham Background technique over at her blog
Diary of Two Crafty Girls (
here).
