It feels great to be stamping again, and especially to be able to do the TSC this week. Thanks Shirley for the fun challenge! This week we were to use blue and brown, part of a circle, and 2 squares. I completely forgot about the second square, and had to poke it in behind the flower at the last minute.
I also used the TLC challenge from 4/11, punched circle edge.
thanks for looking!

Love this fabulous card, Darla. Beautiful shades of blue and brown. I like the embossed flower and your card design. I almost used a rooster on this challenge and I would have if I had saw your card first. The partial circle looks like the sun rising. It was so good to see you here.

Darla! It's great to see you!!! I love your card! I never thought about putting the circle BEHIND something so that only part of it shows! Great save on those squares, too! Lovely card, Sistah!!

Oh my gosh, Darla, what an awesome way to tie this challenge together with that Big embossed die cut bloom on your circle with the scalloped border!! Love how you snuck in those squares at the end and used that lacey border to finish this awesome card! So glad you brought all this inspiration to wow us with!! Hugs!

I looked for the polka dots because I knew they had to be on here and then I found them in your beautiful flower - WOW! This is a perfect tribute to Cindy - what cool papers and what an awesome layout.
