TECC #66

Ever have a day when you wake up, bring your coffee into the craft room and a hundred ideas just come pouring into your head so fast that you can't keep up with them? See, that seldom happens to me but today was one of those mornings.

I need a birthday card for my new boss, who is a sweetheart and my co-worker was going to do the shopping I thought I would make the shopping card. I saw Taylor's sketch and thought it was perfect.

I love the colors of Dawn's color challenge. But. One thing I learned from this color challenge is that I really don't have any papers in AQUA!!! And I LOVE this color!!!! Guess I'll have to just the local SB Store!!!! Ahh the hard ship.... hee hee.

So in making this card, I used Paper Trey Ink's "Chocolate Remix". This is one of my favorite stamp set's from CTMH, "Let's Shop" I have used her a few times before on challenges. The ribbon is one of those which I had laying around. The bling on the top left hand side is actually a pale, pale blue but actually turned out as a deeper blue in the photo.
