I started this project with the sentiment stamp that I knew I wanted to use and the color inspiration from CR84FN. You can visit their site HERE.
A color combination of grape, green and blue… so many ways to work this one! Bold, softer or somewhere in between?
My next inspiration was a 6 x 6 paper collection from Basic Grey and a doily that I picked up from our table the last time my husband and I ate out at a restaurant. I saved it because I thought it’s pattern was particularly pretty.
I’m going to keep this post short, as it’s been a really hot day- 110 and 25% humidity, high compared to our usual single digit humidity! Even though I exercised and ran errands early in the morning, just going in and out knocked the stuffing out of me! I’m going to turn in early tonight.

It was cloudy and dreary half the day here in Seattle. I can’t imagine the heat that you are going through – when I go to Eastern Washington to visit Stuart’s parents it is hot like that – though not with the humidity at 25%!! I grew up in Illinois and I don’t miss the heat and humidity in the summer…just the sun! Take care!
Oh My Goodness Rebecca! This is so Beautiful!
Love the Wonderful sentiment and I So agree the doily does have a very Pretty pattern! Such a Beautiful bow and Sweet flowers too! The Kioshi dp’s are so Perfect! I am going to have to dig mine out! Thanks for the inspiration! And So glad you could join us at CR84FN!

Here in the Netherlands it’s raining most of the time …so no happy summer.. I love the sun its so much better for the rheumatisme ..makes people so much happier all around.
