OWH Hot Tropics

While the cat's away, the mice will play!  OWH is having a Cruise Week Virtual Card Party, and first up is to make a card with hot pink, green and yellow.  I followed the February sketch for SFYTT and here are the results-
Ingredients for the card include-
SU cardstock- Whisper White, Green Galore, So Saffron, Gable Green
dp- K and Co's Sweet Nectar
Ink- SU Pixie Pink, Green Galore, Versamark
Stamps-SU Always, Teeny Tiny Wishes
Other-clear e.p., buttons from Joannes, embroidery thread, spellbinders

This card is also entered in the Stampin' Sisters in Christ card challenge and Sentimental Sundays challenge to make a card that shows love, in this case the heart.  While I will not directly be giving this card to someone who needs to know they are loved, this card will be going to a military hero who will be able to send it to someone to let them know they are loved.  Thanks for stopping by!

    Beautiful floral paper and all the layering and the buttons...it's all great! Smart idea to start with a sketch too.

    This reminds me so much of Lily Pulitzer! I think it will certainly cheer up a mom who can't see her child on Mother's Day!

    Lee Ann, what a pretty card. I love the heart on it. I think you get bonus points because it is going to a soldier, which lets them know they are loved, and they get to give it again. What a great way to pass the love along!!! Thanks for playing along with the Stampin' Sisters in Christ Challenge.

    Le Ann, what a wonderful sketch -- your card really shows it off very well. I like how you added the heart to the circle and the buttons really add pizzaz too.
