Happy Sunday afternoon!
This is what I did as my DH watched the race and took a nap!
I think I was definitely having more fun than he was!

I wanted to use the colors for the current
Coral ~ Tan ~ Brown
and the sketch is
I made this card with one of my new stamp sets called Ginger "Pictures" Indie Chic (MME),
which came in my August Simon Says Card kit.
I stamped the chevrons in 3 rows with Crumb Cake, Soft Suede (SU) and Coral (MS) inks.
Then I stamped the decorative border in Soft Suede directly to the card base.
I trimmed the chevron panel and attached it to the card base with foam tape.
The tag was cut with my Plantin Schoolbook Cricut cartridge at 3 1/2".
I drew dashes all around the tag with a white gel pen. The sentiment is from a different stamp set called Absolutely Delightful (Simon Says).
I added pretty coral ribbon and twine to the tag. The paper flower is an Antique Paperie Flower sticker.
Thanks for stopping by!
