Hi there and a happy Friday to you! I had a busy but good day yesterday! I hung out at The Ink Pad with Anna and Barbara. I helped Anna with the window in the morning and then Barbara with some on-line stuff in the afternoon. Around 4:00 I headed back to Penn to catch the train out to Babylon where Taylor and her friends picked me up and took me to Scrap-A-Latte for the first night of card class which is always a good time. This morning I’m going to get my haircut and then an eye exam so I can get some new contacts. After that Andrew is going to stop by and help me a little more with my project that I’m working on and then it’s off to the store for the second night of card class! Yay!
Today is also a Fab Friday and this week we have a fun color combo for you…
I did see Halloween when I first looked at the colors but then changed direction! The card base is Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock. Down the left side is a strip of Cherry On Top Designer Washi Tape along with a piece of Bermuda Bay. My Flowers and greeting are from the Simon Says Stamp Artful Flowers Photopolymer Stamp Set. I stamped the flowers in Tangelo Twist and the outlines with Memento Tuxedo Black before using the coordinating Simon Says Stamp Designer Flowers Craft Dies to cut them out. The greeting is heat embossed in Hero Arts White Embossing Powder on a piece of Black and the left side is angled. I adhered the flowers and the greeting to one of the PinkFresh Studios Happy Things Acetate Cards with Foam Tape and used more Foam Tape hidden behind them to adhere them card to the card! A few Pretty Pink Posh Gold Sequins complete the card. I love the bold pop of the flowers against the Bermuda Bay and the acetate card is just cool! I hope that you enjoyed my Design Team card for the Fab Friday color challenge! Stop by the blog and check out the rest of the Design Team’s projects and enter yours in the gallery! Thanks very much for taking some time to visit today! Have a fabulous Friday my friends! 🙂

Very cute card. You totally captured the feel of those colors. As soon as I saw them I thought of Hawaii and H2O. Don’t ask me why since I cannot control the way my crazy mind works but then, viola, there was your card screaming Hawaii! What’s that saying about great minds? LOL
Thank you Michael! I saw the same thing! Yes, I guess that great minds do think alike! Maybe I telepathically sent the thought to you! LOL! 🙂
Great card, Justin. I love all the elements, especially having the leaves behind the acetate sheet and the washi tape beside the solid CS. Great take on the colors today.
Thank you HJ! Love those acetate sheets, they are so much fun! 🙂
Oh so pretty. Glad you skipped the Halloween route.

Thanks Nancy! Yes, I tire of Halloween quickly! 🙂
