You brighten my day for Inkspirational

Hi Everyone. Happy Monday. I have a quick card for you tonight. Whilst I was on vacation, I got to play along with some challenges and also discover some new ones.

Secret Garden meets Sweet Sorbet

Hi Everyone. Happy Wednesday. 3/27 - updated to correct DSP... Thanks, Cherie! Well, I managed to spend some quality time in my newly painted craft room today and I was really on a roll! I decided it was high time to make use of my Sweet Sorbet Watercolor Wonder- it really is one of the best DSPs to ever come out of SU! I paired it with the Secret Garden stamp set and a new PTI sentiment set called Wet Paint. Oh.... and I finished it off with some of that wonderful Ribbon that I got as a birthday present...
