Go nuts!

I am trying to stretch out of my zone a bit with color and paired up PTI Summer Sunrise, Aqua Mist, Hibiscus Burst and SU's Pumpkin Pie. Are you blind yet? LOL, it's not bad and actually looks really good in person. The card was sitting funny and I don't have a way to make it stand straight up. I was trying to lightly bend it to re-shape it but it didn't cooperate. Maybe it's the humidity warping the cardstock a bit.
I used the nut (acorn?) image from PTI's First Fruits set and a sentiment from PTI's Year Round Puns. I wanted something different than the usual brown so I stamped a pink nut with the traditional brown top. It's my card and I can stamp my nuts any color I like, right? There are no mistakes in art! I tell my kids this stuff all the time. The polka dots were stamped with Hibiscus Burst ink.
Thanks for stopping by!
