Hello! Happy Saturday boys and girls. Hope your day is well, Saturday is my favorite day of the week! Okay so I decided to give up sweets and sodas for Lent this year. I am into my fourth day now. OMG it is soooooooo hard. I ate sweets all the time. Rather it be made with real sugar or sugar substitute. I decided to give it all up. No more sugar in my coffee. That actually has been the easiest. I practiced drinking my coffee black for about 2 weeks before Lent. But my diet sodas............oh golly, do I ever miss those. I tried to reason before that if I ate sweets made from splenda I am doing good. Well, not really so I gave it all up for 40 days. Okay I have gone on long enough about that. I got it off my chest. I just think about sweets all the time! argh! So, this little card made with bold stripes.
I used PTI Plum Pudding, Raspberry Fizz and Aqua Mist. Just cut up some stripes and layered them onto white cardstock. The scallop squares are a die cut from cuttlebug. Hello friend is from PTI as is the little butterfly. Easy Peasy simple card. Hope you enjoyed looking at it. Have a fantastic rest of the weekend!
Cheers!

so sweet, try not to think of sweets, it will get easier! *~*
Julie - this is so great. These are wonderful colors and you did a great job putting them together. I have found that the flavored water seems to help me when it comes to wanting something tasty. I'll pray it gets easier for you soon.
Great colors, Julie! OTOH, that sweet Logan layout is the cutest thing!
Very, very pretty!
Hi Julie this is a very cute card. I love how you alternated the bold colors. I hear ya girl I too gave up sweets for Lent. It's soooo hard! I have a bad sweet tooth. Just remember we can do it.
