Plum Hope

Hey can you believe it. I'm posting a card before midnight!!!

It's been an interesting weather day here today. We have had heavy wind, snow, rain, sleet and thunder. A perfect day to stay in and craft!!!

When I saw the requirements for the Colour Create Challenge I new exactly which paper I would use. They wanted us to use the fish in the picture below for color inspiration and to also include swirls and ribbon.
Isn't the patterned paper perfect!!!

I used my Cricut to cut out the vase (Walk in My Garden) and sentiment (Calligraphy). The flowers and ribbon were a RAK. There were some things I might have done differently but all in all, I think it turned out good.

Blessings,
