Iâm back from my hand surgery "vacation," and I'm ready to tackle some SCS challenges. I entering several of this weekâs challenge, plus playing some challenge catch-up as well. This card is for a cardmaking bestieâs birthday, who lives nearby, thus we are able to get together fairly often for paper play dates. My design idea developed by choosing a card to âCASEâ by cdimick, the current Featured Stamper. From there, I visited the Inspiration challenge and I found my color theme, which I refined with the exact blues and greens required in the Color Challenge. It went on from there until I managed to fit ELEVEN challenges by tweaking my card to fit the requirements of all. Thatâs a new record for me, with seven to nine being more common. Following are the challenges that Iâm entering:
1. CC736 â Color Challenge â âA Balmy Coastal Tideâ â 4/23/19. I used the required colors: Balmy Blue, Coastal Cabana, and Tranquil Tide, as well as completed the dessert by adding leaves.
3. IC698 â Inspiration Challenge â âNature Fine Art Photosâ â 4/20/19. I chose a beautiful picture of Havasu Falls at the Grand Canyon for its beautiful blues and greens. The link is here: https://www.naturefineartphotos.com/...-grand-canyon/
4. MMTPT560 â Teapot Challenge â âSay It With Flowersâ â 4/16/19. I added flowers to my shaker frame to dress it up and it fits the challenge perfectly.
5. CT0419 â Fan Club Monthly ThemesâApril 2019 â âSprinkles & Sproutsâ â 4/15/19. I added glitter glaze, confetti embossing folder, flowers, and a shaker to my card, thus fulfilling many of the choices available.

You know, I never really cared for this image, but I really like it on your card, Carlene! I love the colors and flowers to kick it up a notch. Then add some bling and sparkle and you've got a Beauty~
