School Days

Hi
Here is another card but today's card is for those heading back to school. Our children go back on Tuesday of next week. I made this using throwdown's color palette of the week. I have been following AmyR's great tutorials and have picked up some fabulous techniques. It is thanks to her for the coloring of the background of the center panel. I used watercolor markers on strathmore and I just happened to find a piece with holes for binding which to me resembles note paper. I hope you like!

Colour Throwdown

Floral Thank You

Hi!
I followed an example of a card to come up with my design. I did not have color bursts so instead I used watercolor markers. Funny, I have those same colors on order in color burst but of course they are not in yet. I heat embossed the flower and the sentiment and stamped the hearts with staz on. I had a pice of black sparkle paper so I added a strip of that. To match the color I used a floral patterned paper. This was created for a challenge by Muse.

When I saw her card I thought of a loving sentiment in which she was sending love. So I did something similar but thought of saying Thank you along with the love.
