The End of February... and Friends with Flair

February, it is at last your final day... and, truth be told, I don't really even care if the door hits you on your way out. Let's just say you haven't been my favourite February ever. But! You're ending on a Friday, and I decided I would see you off by joining in with Unity's weekly Friends with Flair



What better way to see out February than a "Good Day Sunshine" card? I love this Itty Bitty set (and am trying so very hard to ignore that they are all 50% off this weekend) but for some reason, it had yet to make it to a finished card. Although the green is a bit minuscule in this patterned paper, I'm hoping there is just enough that I can count this in Unity's current colour challenge, as well. 



I added the trio of black pearls to balance the sentiment with the image, but look at that -- it means I can enter this week's Simon Says Stamp challenge, too. 
Since this stamp set made it to a card for the first time, I'll remind you that you still have a week to enter the current Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers challenge: U is for Unused. 
Goodbye, February!

Supplies: white & Bazzill yellow cardstock, Memory Box brioche patterned paper, Unity Good Day Sunshine stamps, Brilliance onyx black ink, Zing clear embossing powder, Recollections black pearls

Well, I can certainly understand why. :( I do love this card though. The black image looks brilliant stamped on the patterned paper highlighted with bright yellow. Great use of the challenge colours!

What a delightful scene, Lindsey and it would be a true February summer scene in Australia! I love the picture and the colours of the background are perfect to get us dreaming of sunny WARM days!

Awesome use of scrap paper and I love the touch of yellow! That sale was sooooo tempting but I managed to steer clear of it. However, I've just seen these

and I don't know how much longer my shopping ban can hold out...
