IMAGINE TODAY using Color Hills

hello fellow crafters,

hope you are having a great 2014 start.

all i want is some sunshine...enough of snow and ice and rain.

so my "imagine today" card with color hills brought some  of it (sunshine) into my crafty world.

this is my first time using color hills and i am liking the colors and thickness of the cardstock. the designs are superb and the badges (round embellishment) add some flair and are all that and more.

Imagine Today

is a 5.5" x 3.75" card

i told you it was like a ray of sunshine...beautiful paper! :D

the white base is from my stash. it was already a size 5.5" x 4.25"...a standard A2 size. i trimmed some of it to a 3.75" and used it as a tent style card.

the  designer patterned papers are from color hills:  the refresh collection and you can find it here.

i punched the bottom edge of the yellow patterned paper and use a die for the half doilie. the sentiment "imagine" was cut out right from the patterned paper, a simple rectangle.

all edges were inked with powder puff chalk inks.

some jute was added (three strings attached with mini staples) and some foam dot was added to the back of the badge (the badges have a pin to attach but i chose to use foam dots because of where i wanted to use them on my card), and a  bit of distressing on two areas...

and here you have it: an Imagine Today card with a bit of sunshine.

hope you enjoy my card for today using the new "refresh" collection from color hills.

all supplies have been linked for your convenience.
