Monday… I much prefer sunday to you! How was everyones weekend? Mine was good, car show Saturday, finished the Christening Invites yesterday, had some dinner with Heather and saw the wee ones and the child. All in all not a bad weekend at all. It was quite windy here yesterday too, I really do wish that spring would hurry up and get here. Today, I’m going to try something a little different. Rather than bore you with the step by step walk through of how I make the card I’m just going to highlight bits and give you the supply list at the end. You, of course, can tell me that you don’t enjoy it and I’ll go back to the old way. So here we go!
Today’s card – Pals Paper Arts 156 – Color Challenge. Certainly Celery, Bashful Blue and Marina Mist…
The card base is Whisper white and the background is Crumb Cake embossed with the Honeycomb Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. The flowers and the butterflies nicely offset the flagged banners at the top. The greeting is from Lacy and Lovely and is stamped in Crumb Cake. Honeycomb, tags and cork, my current obsessions!
Thanks for checking in, have a great day!!

Woo hoo! The color renovation has been announced! I’m so happy that they have kept four of the five 2011-2013 In-Colors! I’m a little sad to see that Lucky Limeade didn’t make the cut but we also got some former In-Colors back too! Bermuda Bay, Soft Sky, Crushed Curry, Pear Pizzaz and Blushing Bride along with a new color Smokey Shadow. They have also moved some colors to different families and of course they are retiring some colors. Say so long to Regal Rose, Pretty in Pink, Bashful Blue, Certainly Celery, Baja Breeze, Riding Hood Red, Bravo Burgundy, Not Quite Navy, More Mustard and River Rock. Change is a good thing!

Love it—the colors are awesome, I NEED to do that challenge before it runs out! I like your condensed blog version too….sometimes I just need to glance at your “recipe” to see what you’ve used….I do like hearing about your day, though! But anything that keeps me typing for a shorter amount of time is good in my book, anyway!
Thank you LeAnne! They are great colors. I think the omission of the “walk though” is definitely a good thing, thanks for the feedback! Have an awesome day! 🙂
Simply gorgeous! I love the embossing with those beautiful flowers and banners. Thanks for joining us at the Pals Paper Arts!
Thanks Dawn! Have a nice week!
Beautiful card. Love that embossing folder. Hope it carries over into the catalog. Like your new description instead of step by step. If we have a question, you will be happy to tell us. You are sooooo good at responding to replies.
Have a wonderful day, Justin. 🙂
Thank you Cynthia! I hope it carries over too! Thanks for letting me know about the blog format! I do try to get back to everyone! Have a great day!!
Hi Justin,
your Card is very sweet! The Colors and Flowers are very beautiful and i like the background:)
I wish you a very nice day 🙂
Greetings from the German Northsea,
Jenny
Thank you Jenny! I hope you have a nice day too! 🙂
Well, thanks for asking: i usually start to read through the description so I can picture the card in my mind before I have an actual look, but about a third of the way through I go ahead and scroll down so I can see the card because the suspense is killing me! This abbreviated version may work-lol. Please keep the supply list tho; it’s a nice feature. Oh-and great card BTW! Love the honeycomb pattern.
Thank you Georgie for letting me know! In all seriousness you guys read it so its what works the best for you! Feedback is very important! I’m glad you like the supply list, that isn’t going anywhere. Thanks again! 🙂
Great card, Justin! I love the colors on the neutral, textured background. Very pretty! Thanks for sharing with us at Pals Paper Arts this week!
Thank you Cindy! Have a nice week! 🙂
I absolutely LOVE this card. The neutral colored embossed background is such a nice backdrop to the rest of the card. Everything about this card screams BRAVO! The cut out flowers give it a lot of pizzazz. Good work. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Pat! The Honeycomb Folder works great with flowers! Have a nice day! 🙂
A perfect way to use the challenge colors, Justin! I LOVE those banners! Thanks for playing with the Pals at Pals Paper Arts!
Thanks Ann! Wasn’t sure about the blue flowers! Have a nice week! 🙂
I just love that honeycomb on crumb cake! Great card! Thanks for playing along with us at Pals Paper Arts! 🙂
Thank you Nina! 😉
Congratulations, Justin, on being one of the PPA Top Picks. Beautiful card. Love how you tossed Crumb Cake in the mix!
Thank you very much Mary! I’m a big fan of yours and love playing along with the Pals! Have a great week!! 🙂
