We just got back last night from a really fun family reunion. Mind you, it wasn't MY family, but friends who are just LIKE family. I drove out to western MD with my mom and Ryan. We spent a wonderful 3 days away. It's always so good to see old friends! Yesterday, on the way home, we stopped at the Bedford Springs Resort for lunch with one of my mom's closest friends. Check this place out!
It is located in the cutest town, too. Lots of antique shops, inns, etc. After we had an amazing lunch, we walked around and checked everything out. Including the spa! Mom and I want to get back for a girls weekend! After the spa we're going to hit this pool...
Since I'm going to be back at work, I think I'll need it!
After being so busy with CHA stuff, I'm finally able to play along with some challenges. ;) I made this card using Dawn's color challenge. Here are this week's colors.
And I based it on this weeks 2 Sketches 4 You sketch. You have to check out the site from some adorable DT cards!
I have to say that I probably wouldn't have put these colors together otherwise, but I'm glad I played along because I love how they look on the card.
I used Papertrey Ink, cardstock, button, ribbon, stamps and paper. The floral stamps are from the In Bloom set and the sentiment is from Damask designs. I aded lots of bling by coating the flowers with glitter and adding some Zva gems.
Thanks so much for stopping by! Have a great day!

Anabelle, so so pretty! I love your card!!! Hmmm, I'll have to think a bit on this. It's got purple and I'm no purple fan :P

anyway - cute card! i wouldn't have ever put those colors together either but you make it look effortless and gorgeous! love how it turned out!
What a gorgeous card Anabelle! Scrumptious colors and to die for bling. And that resort looks positively divine. xxD
