I'm still feeling a little pastelled out (is that a real term?) from the baby card run, which is odd - because my very first report card ever brought home noted how much I LOVED pastel colours :0) Not much has changed! And they WILL be back!
Anyway, when I first saw these popsicles, I immediately thought of the amazing Dawn McVey - and her layers of luscious, luminous colours - colours - colours!
So layers of luscious colours - and some "Dawn Style" is where the mojo took me :0)
I used some pieces of Papertrey Designer Paper, and stamped some images on the other paper strips, before layering them like lollipops :0) - my background colours are a mix of Hawaiian Shores and Raspberry Fizz (which is the MOST difficult colour to photograph - don't you think??!)
My flower is a mix of stamping and felt - and the card was finished off with stitching - top and bottom and some beautiful buttons!
And this card is bright and cheerful and happy - and not pastel coloured. Aaaaaaaah! I got my colour fix!!!
Thanks for popping in! With the weekend HERE - I hope it's a good one!!
Smiles!!

I'm a brights girl myself, so this card makes me HAPPY!!! Beautiful job!
Oh, how fabulous this is! I love the gradations of color here and the whole bright, summer feel to this. Fabulous take on that inspiration photo.
Very pretty and great 'Dawn type' card too! I've copied that image to possibly try and incorporate into a card. Still haven't come up with something other then I want one of those popsicles to eat! The colors are luscious and you did a fantastic job!
Your layout with all those fun strips of patterns is so pretty!!! Looks like a great CASE of Dawns's style!!!
What a happy colorful card! :)
Definitely cheery and luscious! Makes me think of summer days and fun!
Great job. Love all the bright colors! I agree raspberry fizz is very hard to photograph so it looks like it does in real life.
Oh WOW! This is just amazing!! I love, love, love the bold color, and your design is so fun! :)
And, I have to completely agree w/you about Raspberry Fizz... I have the hardest time capturing the true color in photos... Mine always wants to be an odd red color. LOL :)
The colors you used are fantastic! I love all the layers! Wonderful card!
This is beautiful.. I love bright bold colors.. That inspiration picture is perfect for summer chillaxin.. Great job...
So pretty! I like the bold colors in strips on your card and the ribbon and the type font. Yes, I agree that Raspberry is a tricky one to photograph at times!
Hey Nerina! What a fun approach to this week's Tuesday Trigger in the Moxie Fab World! Thanks so much for playing along! :)
