Think About Color Thursday - Kraft, Close to Cocoa, Chocolate Chip, Old Olive, Tempting Turquoise

Today's card is earthy with its Kraft cs and Chocolate Chip additions, yet the Tempting Turquoise sky and old Olive grass and background perk it up.

The grass from Inspired By Nature is stamped in Old Olive, then heat embossed.  The background is then sponged in Old Olive and Tempting Turquoise to represent grass and sky.  That sponging is what truly makes this card so beautiful!

The message on this card is from the Whimsical Words stamp set, which is one of the FREE Sale-a-Bration products.  You have ten days left to get Sale-a-Bration products, so please email me if there is anything you need.

The best element of this card is the cattail scene!  Remember a post from my blog a few weeks ago about uses for the horizontal slot punch?  Well, this is a card that shows how fun my favorite horizontal punch use really is!  Just punch little horizontal slots from Close to Cocoa cs & add dots of adhesive with the Two-Way Glue Stick and press the cattails onto your card!   This finished card reminds me of a beach in the Outer Banks - serene & refreshing!
