Tea Time

Happy Hump Day Everyone!!!

Whether you're vacationing, resting or working, I hope all is well with you and yours. It's a beautiful day on the east coast--humidity free for now. After being away from my inks and papers and adhesives and emblishments, I feel as though I'm finding my way back. I know this because it was hard to pull myself from the craft table last night. I was on a roll, that is until HawthoRNe went off and fatigue began to set in.

Well, before my fatigue fell on me like a ton of bricks, I managed to create a card with The Ribbon Reel in mind. This super 'Citris Sunshine' challenge is scheduled to run until Sunday, August 21st. So, that means it's not too late for you to join in. Just below is the inspirational photo for this fortnight challenge.


TURQUOISE, YELLOW AND A TOUCH OF GREEN
PLUS ANY NEUTRAL

...and this is what I created...

It may be hard for you to see, but I managed to incorporate a sprig of verdenant in the teapot and teacup. This was a fun card to create and a wonderful photo to draw from. As always, thanks for stopping by The Peddler's Gallery and come back real soon.
