Floral Thank You

I am still trying to settle into a "normal" routine following the Holidays. I'm still not there yet but am anxious to spend time in my craft room, so far the time there has not been very productive.  Still trying to get my groove back I guess.

Today I am playing along with 2 challenges.  I came across a new challenge called Tic-Tac-Toe Challenge and thought it would be fun to play along.  I used the bottom row of Background Stamping, New and Shaped Frame.  I purchased the Stampin' Up set Awesomely Artistic a while back but was in a flurry of paper,ink and shiny embellishments making Christmas cards so it sat on my shelf unused.  I love the images and decided it would make my perfect something New.  As I contemplated my design I was stuck on color choices.  I have used a lot of blue lately and I wanted something fresh to stir things up.  I remembered the color challenge at Global Design Project and it was exactly what I was looking for - fresh, fun and a neutral to boot.




Happy Stamping,
Dana
