I thought I had finished all the LOVEFEST challenges when I noticed that my "elegant wildflowers" (key word ELEGANT), a card without a die cut in sight, had been caught in my temporary insanity phase and I mistakenly posted it in the die cut challenge. So I made this quick elegant card using the second half of a bkg that I used on another card. I like this one much more than the first one where I did too much with other papers. I stuck with the CAS261 challenge and kept this one simple. While I am talking about goofs...I really went AWOL when I posted my 4 page b-day card for the Lovefest2014K challenge. I somehow up loaded the first page without any details at all (like the "sand"that the girl is lying on is sand peper). The next 2 pages went OK but the 4th page was posted once without info and a second time with corrections. Well, I am off to work...hope I don't forget to stop at red lights or put the car in park when I get there. Oh...the bkg on this card was first red, blue and yellow reinkers with shaving cream for a base, heat embossed the white flourish, then sponged with distress inks in raspberry, mustard and grape.

I knew this was yours the instant I saw it. Love, love those strong colours and the contrast of the white against them.How did you keep the colours so strong - when I try the shaving cream technique mine come out all pale and pastel!
