TGF Retro Fresh Challenge~~BRING ON THE SUN!

Today starts another fun month-long Retro-Fresh Challenge at The Greeting Farm! "Retro-Fresh" means using a stamp 6 months or older!

Today's Retro Fresh Challenge is a fun, bright, and sunshiny one. We challenge you to:

BRING ON THE SUN!!

It's hard to believe summer is almost here!! Although for many of us in the United States, the temperature at times feels like winter all over again. I can't believe some states got snow recently....in May.....what in the world?!!

For my Easel Card, I used this cutie patootie Anya and sentiment from an 8.5x11 kit called "Sunshine". Now the "Sunshine" kit is not in the store anymore, but the "Spotlight" kit is still available (I have this one too and LOVE it!). Anya is stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink on X-Press It Blending Card and colored with Copics.

Copics:
Skin: E000, E00, E01, E11
Hair: E44, E47, E49
Suit: R81, R83, R85, BG53, BG57

The floral dp is from a paper pad at Walmart called Beach House. The large yellow ribbon is also from Walmart. The flowers were from my friend Cebelica! :) The gold sparkly rhinestones were in my stash and the white doily is from Wilton.

We were enjoying some warm summer-like days last week, but now it got a wee bit colder again. I guess now we have normal spring weather.
I like the rich colours of your card. They give the card a very positive look and a touch of summer. The flowers look great too and that big bow completes the card perfectly.
