Tropical Challenge

Today at Double D Challenges
we are feeling very TROPICAL with our challenge and have the fun
mood board below to get us all 'inspired'!



I lost my computer to a sudden death last week
so in getting a new one set up, I had to do an 'easy' card
(that is why when on a Design Team it is so important to work ahead..lol)

I  have lots to try and get back, when things slow down here,
but luckily the other half of DD (Darlene)
and my (partner in crime) helped me out with this photo...
thanks Dar!!




My card was made with a few Cheery Lynn Designs Tropical leaves
and all the rest came from a 'Let's flamingle' paper pad!
I just added a few sequins and a flower.

Make sure to take a peek at the Double D Challenge
to see all the FABULOUS Tropical creations from the Design Team...
you will NOT be disappointed!!

Let's Flamingle? What a fabulous paper pad that must be! What I can see of it looks pretty amazing, and so are those dies. This is totally gorgeous, Diane! Good luck with your computer stuff.

Oh how I love this. Why didn't I think to use a flamingo? So clever how you have attached all your elements inside the patterned paper oval and then left a lot of white space. This is GENIUS my dear!!!

We just weren't born into the technological age were we? We recently visited the Apple store for a new iPad for DH... Man those kids are wizards! Fabulous card for the challenge and very tropical... Have a wonderful day... hugs to Mac!
