I've used the colour scheme from Just Us Girls (at least 3 colours plus any neutrals). I used Memento Summer Sky, New Sprout, Rose Bud and Dandelion, with Espresso Truffle as the neutral.
I decided to cut up the sentiment "I Miss You" so that I could just use the "Miss" and "You" parts one on top of the other. No sooner had I stamped the words than I looked down and the "I" was nowhere to be seen. Therein followed a forensic fingertip search of the carpet, clothing frisk, re-opening all the ink pads I'd used, upturn of the bin and repeat, but no sign of "I". Oh, well, lesson learned. Finished the card, photographed it, made a brew, came back, looked again and found the little blighter hiding under the scissors on the desk, sneaky little thing!
So perfect - I was thinking of using this set for it too - now what am I going to do???? Hugs, Cornelia
ReplyDeleteI love your colorful quilt! So glad you could join us at Just Us Girls!
ReplyDeleteThis is a great card. Colourful, cheery and I love how you placed the sentiment... so perfect!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous quilt card, Shirley! The colors are great! So glad you found the "I" -- I've had that happen to me lots of times as well!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun, vibrant quilt, Shirley ... clever placement of the miss you in the specially stamped non-hearts square! Well done finding the pesky 'I' ... let those teeny tiny stamps (or pieces of them) out of your sight for a moment and whoosh, they're off ... so pleased your's wasn't! Anita :)
ReplyDeleteI am always doing this, hinting for things and finding them days later!! This is a fab design, as soon as I saw this challenge I thought of this set but thinking was as far as I have got, let's hope your fabulous quilt has inspired me xx
ReplyDeleteNice to hear the the missing "I" was located! Sneaky little bugger trying to hide on you! Fabulous card...love the bright colors. Cool idea to stamp the words within the quilt squares!
ReplyDeleteIsn't it funny how you can misplace things so quickly! Glad you shared this beauty with us over at Just Us Girls.
ReplyDeleteI had to laugh at your mishap with the stamp! Things mysteriously go missing from my table all the time then magically reappear! I think someone is playing jokes on me! Anyway, I love your card. The quilting is very cool and love the one sentiment square. Thanks for playing with Just Us Girls!
ReplyDeleteVery fun use of those stamps. And I'm glad you found the little stinker. Been there, done that.
ReplyDeleteI love how you pieced your quilt together with all those pretty colors and patterns! Your sentiment is perfect, too! Beautiful card, Shirley!
