Parcel & Post Birthday

Hello Blogger friends! Thanks for taking the time to stop and visit with The Charmed Life Blog today. It's Memorial Day here in the USA. We had a parade in our local community. It's always well attended and the little kids love it. 

We didn't do much of anything else. My hubby was out working in his gardens for a bit. And then we went out to buy a new mattress. We just don't seem to have luck with mattresses. Hopefully this one will last for the 12 years that its warranted for. We felt the salesman was honest and gave us good information. 

I have neglected my blog for a month but with good reason. It was primary election season here in PA and I am involved in the local political scene. So, I was busy doing mailings, door knocking, phone bank work and texting. 

I was creating but only for the color challenge on Splitcoaststampers. I am still a part of that team. This one was for color challenge #1051. We were to use daffodil delight, real red, granny apple green and azure afternoon for the color combination. Optional was an anything goes theme. I chose pretty in pink for my option.

real red, granny apple green, azure afternoon, daffodil delight

I used the Spellbinders Parcel & Post die to create my card. I cut the mailbox in azure afternoon and night of navy (neutral). The flowers are cut in the challenge colors + pretty in pink as my dessert option.

I embossed the background panel with the boho chic embossing folder from Stampin' Up. Stamped my sentiment with the coordinating stamp set to this die. 

That's my card for this post. So until next time......God bless.
