Warm Thoughts

Lois (Clownmom on SCS) has issued  challenge #114 for the Stampin' B's Design Team  and she asked that we use one layer, 2 stamps, 3 colors. My colors are yellow, green, and brown. Being a one layer made it really simple and I just stamped my Inkadinkado sunflower collage image and colored with Copics. I tied a ribbon, stamped a sentiment and that is it.

We hope you'll play along. If so, just use the inlinkz tool to upload your card here.

Crafts and Me Challenges #38-Stamp Something
Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge #137 has a photo for inspiration:

        I was inspired by the colors, especially the yellows and greens.

Paper Sundaes #72 - Sentiments on your cards or creations. Should be something from the heart.
