Try It Out Tuesday #21

This week's challenge was themed for a backyard bash! We were to create a summertime invitation.
Be sure to check out Susana's store blog, Follow Your Heart, to see the other wonderful creations from the other design team members and to see how you can play along!
I had lots of ideas for this challenge~But when I sat down at my table to create....the ideas wouldn't go onto paper easily. So instead of forcing it and hating what I create, I am choosing to take this week off. I'll still have some projects later in the week using some fun goodies from Susana's store though so be sure to check back!!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It's not an invitation but I was able to get a card done today using stamps from Susana's store.
I'm telling ya, if you haven't ordered these cuties yet, you're really missing out! I just {heart} each one of the Victoria Case for SCACD images.
For this card I used sweet Alexa. Doesn't she look so sweet picking her flowers?




supplies:
card size: 5 x 5
stamps: Alexa, TAC peace sign-inside-retired, Susanaments-inside
paper: Dovecraft Retro Floral,
ink: Memento Tuxedo Black,
others: copics (blonde 2 bundle), lavender copic glitter pen, Dress it Up Cutsie Bugs, SU ticket corner punch,
