For today's Colors: Watermelon Wonder, Soft Sky, Elegant Eggplant. Dessert: No Flowers. Simon Says Stamp Challenge: Use Designer Paper.
I was inspired by Irene's card.
I was on the Design Team in November, but before the month was up Mary asked if I would be willing to stay on as a Guest Hostess. My eyes lit up and my heart skipped a beat with excitement. I've had an enjoyable experience; it was fun working with all these wonderful ladies. Thank you, Mary, for taking me on and teaching me things with the computer that I never knew existed. ; )
I have to say that this was by far the most difficult CC for me and the added dessert was a challenge in itself! I colored the Celebrate with blender pens and ink pads, added some doodled dots in eggplant, sponged on the colors for my dp. It's all popped up on fun foam onto a white cb. Thanks for stopping by today! ~Roberta

Oh Roberta, you really made these colors sing with these glorious cc colors! And again, you have taken a slightly older stamp and made it brand new and modern again- I love how you do this! This card truly says, "happy" and "Celebrate." What is even better is this card is perfect for a man or a woman and for so many occasions too. You really knocked this one out of the ballpark my friend! ~Karen.
