Betty (gbedwright) challenged us to use Barley Banana, Dusty Durango and Basic Gray!
For the Double Dog Dare Challenge, FRAN challenges you to make a card depicting something you would like to be doing about now! I would love to be in that hammock on a beach somewhere!
You are welcome to play along in the DDC challenge. Just add DDC to your keywords so that we can find your card! Hope you will play!
For the background I used Memento's cantaloupe, potter's clay and SU old olive! I stamped The foliage (Judi Kins) several times and embossed using clear e/p on one side of the background! The Flourishes *Beach Life* palm trees were colored using copics. Barely Banana was stippled around trees! Nesstibilities oval was cut and embossed using the Cuttlebug! TFL!

Think you are going to have more company than you know what to do with! We will have to rent more hammocks. Count me in! Peaceful and beautiful scene card...I can feel the warm breezes now. TFS!!

I always thought that living in south meant it was warm year round.. I am freezing.... brrrr... so count me in on the trip to warmer weather too... Your card is warm, inviting (to say the least) and also very very nicely done... LOVE it.. TFS...
