Hi! I love challenges that give me something to start with as I design my cards, but sometimes I attempt things that are really difficult for me, a true challenge. Today's card is a true challenge. Operation Write Home's mid week throwdown is to use pastels! Here is what I came up with.
I know they aren't really light pastels, but as I looked through my papers, these are about as light as I have. I truly have trouble with pastels, LOL. I don't have pastels in my wardrobe or my house. My babies' rooms were even in primary colors. I did get to use my new Paper Smooches stamps and dies though! :) Another thing I have discovered that I am using more and more often are the little bitty stamps that are included in some stamp sets. The little 'XO' I used here is one of those. It is included with the Chubby Chums stamp set I used. Love those little additions!

So cute, Jeanette! Love the chickie and the die-cut "hello."
Very cute card but you are right they aren't very pastel. I started thinking about it and I don't really have pastels either. Ha I never noticed before.
