Two in One


Hello there! This is a card I created using this FUN sketch from DT Member, Sherri, at DeNami Design:


and these yummy colors from the most recent challenge at Off The Wall Craftiness:


Notes:

Here are a couple of more photos of the card I created for these awesome challenges:


The kite image is "Fly a Kite (K63)" from DeNami Design! I love its whimsy!!! I used my "Cloud" dies and "Background Basics: Text Style II" (all from Papertrey Ink) to create the clouds.
