B&W with a splash of Emerald

Hi there!

I hope everyone is doing fine on this beautiful Sunday morning! Mine is a happy one because our daughter is here for a short stop over from Switzerland, before she starts her internship at the beautiful Sandals Resort on the island of St Lucia in the Caribbean.

She will be away for 6 months. That's a long time, so I am enjoying every moment with her!

I managed to squeeze in a card for 2 of my favorite challenges...

I used my Emerald green Promarker to selectively color blocks from the template I downloaded from The pixel scrapper. I also colored a white satin ribbon with the same color to get an exact match in the colors.

Thanks for visiting me today, I hope you have a great week!

  3. I get a very 70s vibe from that colour and from the geometric pattern - very fun! Enjoy your time with your daughter (you'll probably have to go visit her in St Lucia, just to make sure she's ok, right? lol!)
