Reason to Smile - in three minutes!

It's Three Minute Thursday here today and I've reached for my Reason to Smile stamp set to make a quick card. Come and have a look:

Look what happens when you stamp the large flower outline image over and over, allowing the petals to overlap! I used a colour combination suggested by my Colour Coach - Baja Breeze, River Rock and Bravo Burgundy - who'd have thought?!

I finished the card with two lines drawn with a marker and a ruler, this gorgeous flourishing sentiment from Thank You Kindly and a trio of pearls. What a quick and easy card and I'm already thinking of other colour schemes to make it in!

Here's what you'll need to make today's card:

Stamps: Reason to Smile (available during August only), Thank You Kindly

Ink:  Baja Breeze, River Rock, Bravo Burgundy

Card stock: Early Espresso, Whisper White

Other: Bravo Burgundy marker, Basic Pearls, stamp-a-majig

It's been a busy few days around here but my youngest son has found time to round up a gang of playmates in our neighbourhood. As I popped out of the back door yesterday, I heard him proudly showing off our cat. "I like your cat," said one of his new friends. "What's his name?"My son was quick to correct him: "It's not a he, it's a she," he said. "Oh," said the boy. "Nice name!" Aren't children wonderfully accepting?!

You may be forgiven for imagining I don't have any other stamps other than Reason to Smile... but I'll show you one more card tomorrow using the set and then I promise I'll move on! See you then!
