Blue and Green

I am in the middle of a time comsuming project for church. I am desperately hoping to finish it tomorrow. If so, I'll have pictures. In the meantime, I took a break to do this weeks CAS challenge over at Splitcoast. This week is was a color challenge - we had to use green and blue and then we could use any neutrals.

When I first envisioned doing this challenge in my head, I was thinking light blues and greens. And then when I sat down to stamp, I absolutely HAD to use kraft cardstock. Then my entire color palette changed from light to dark.

The tree and the sentiment are both from Papertrey. I stamped the tree in wild wasabi (SU) and the sentiment in night of navy (also SU). You can pretty much figure out the rest from there.

It's only 7:15pm but I'm ready to call it a day. I dealt with the temper tantrums of all tantrums this afternoon and then a couple hours of remorseful crying and self recrimination. I am officially spent for the day. Things have once again righted themselves but the drama was worthy of an Academy award. And so, without further ado, I'm going to call it a night and will dream of sunshine and smiles for tomorrow. Have a great night!

This is great Laura! You did well among the chaos! LOL Sorry to hear about your day. Those times are never fun! That tends to happen here a few months into the depolyment. I can hardly wait...

Great card, colors came out just right!

If it's any comfort, you're not alone with the tantrum thing...we had a meltdown here too. I'm wondering if it's the time change thing...?

Thankfully, we get a new day to try again! Parenting isn't for sissies, right?!
