Hello Sunshine

Good morning sunshine!  You have NO idea how excited I am to have finally finished a MOJO card on time!!  This week's sketch was difficult for me - I'm not sure why exactly, but I kept looking at it and looking at it, bound and determined to conquer this one!  I'm totally digging the color combo - Summer Sun and Cameo Coral - yes, I know it's kind of a crazy duo, but I'm needing some summer sun in my frigid winter days right now.  I think the black makes everything pop a little bit more as well.

Thanks for stopping by!  See you back soon.
Karen

I would not have thought to pair up these colors, but they are truly striking...especially with the touch of black! Just wanted to let you know how much I enjoy using my watermarks you created for me...LOVE that you're doing seasonal ones, also!
