#TGIFC258 Color Challenge

Happy Friday stampers!  The crew over at TGIF Challenges has a cheerful Color Challenge for you to play along with this week that you are going to LOVE!
I don't know about you, but I could certainly use some bright and cheerful colors, especially after a week of clouds, wind, rain, hail and snow.  I'm beginning to wonder if Mother Nature has been hit by COVID 19 too!

I absolutely love the March Paper Pumpkin kit!  I paired up No Matter the Weather and FREE Spring Splash stamp sets to make a cheerful card to send out to a dear friend during these dreary times.
I always love some fun stripes, so I created a striped background using Calypso Coral, Daffodil Delight, Old Olive, Pool Party and Purple Posey.  The adorable Ornate Floral 3D Embossing Folder was a pretty close match to the floral pattern in the rainboots...how fun is that?!?!  I stamped the boots in Memento and colored the flowers using the same rainbow of colors that I did for the background.  These colors are bound to cheer anyone up!
Supplies Used:
Paper ~ Whisper White, Basic Black, Calypso Coral, Daffodil Delight, Old Olive, Pool Party, Purple Posey
Ink ~ Smoky Slate, Daffodil Delight, Pool Party, VersaMark, Memento, Stampin' Blends:  Calypso Coral, Daffodil Delight, Old Olive, Pool Party, Purple Posey
Stamp Sets ~ No Matter the Weather, Spring Splash
Other Supplies ~ Ornate Floral 3D Embossing Folder, Stitch Shapes Dies, Whisper White Bakers Twine

While we have been keeping busy with school and work from home, we are all missing our friends and family and routines so much!  But I am enjoying my afternoon craft time and not feeling so rushed to get things done.  Even in all the chaos, we are doing our best to find joy in everything we do every day.

I hope you are all doing well and staying healthy!

Happy Stamping!
