Time Out & The Flower Challenge

It's a two-for day, today!

My card goes to Time Out #85 and The Flower Challenge #9 - I think you'll see why... I just couldn't resist that hammock!

 
A few Distress Oxides, MFT Tropical Floral, and
woven kraft cardstock ... voila!
 
 
 
 
Happy Father's Day to all the Dad's out there - hope you've taken a little time out in the hammock yourselves today!

  13. Oh Michelle, I apologize for the mix up, I'm doing my commenting for the other DT challenge over at Shopping our Stash and the wires in my brain got crossed. But, all that aside, your card is indeed gorgeous, the flowers and the detail of the paper strips make for a lovely card.
    Thank you for sharing with us over at THE FLOWER CHALLENGE, (phew!! I got it right this time, LOL!!) I do hope you come back and play again next time.
    Hugs, (again)
