Tropical Oasis in Grapefruit Grove

Today felt a little off for me.  I was actually OFF today!  The first time in 12 days.  By 10:00 I was ready to take a nap.  I didn't, but it was super tempting, and I'm not one to take naps!  I got a few things done, but pretty much relaxed, and went into my stamp room.  It was hard getting motivated, but a few cards got done.  

Here's one.

Don't you. just want to go where there are tropical flowers and those adirondack chairs?  Sign me up!

I was challenged to use Tropical Oasis DSP, the burlap ribbon and sequins to create a card.  Love the DSP, but unfortunately, I don't own the coordinating stamp set.  Improvise.

The chair just fit so well with the floral paper.  Just Breathe is so very appropriate during this time of quarantine.  I couldn't resist putting the two together.

 

Would you have put those colors together?  I struggled a bit, to come up with ones I thought worked good together, but I like the results.   The Grapefruit Grove is one color that will be retiring in June.  If it's a favorite of yours, grab it before it sells out.  The retiring colors selll out pretty quickly this time of the year.

I'm not sure how much I will be able to blog again this week.  Supposedly, I'll have Friday off, but who knows what will happen.  The online orders are supposed to increase in numbers, so I may be working long days again to get things done.  

Stay safe out there.
