Tickled Pink That You're My Friend!

I hope you're having a great day! I joined a gym a few weeks ago and have been going faithfully every morning. By the time I get home I'm beat and ready for a break. My favorite time out is crafting. I saw this pretty pink challenge at Hand Stamped Sentiments and wanted to play along. 
It's a perfect summer get away.. flamingos, palm trees, blue skies and yummy shades of pink.
I reached for my Reverse Confetti Think Pink stamp set and coordinating dies. The background papers are from the Paper Bliss 6" pad. The stamp set has cute punny sentiments too like this one... 
I wanted to add a tropical feel to the card so I added a few flowers from Build A Bunch in colors that match the background papers.
The scallop circle die cut repeats the sunny sky. All the images were stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored with Copic Markers. 
The finishing touch is a sprinkle of watermelon jewels from Pretty Pink Posh. I hope you find some time to play today!

Good for you for going to the gym!! I get that you are tired when you come back. During school, I have to go after work and then am too tired to craft!! I like that you take your time outs by crafting. LOVE this pretty card. The coloring and the paper layering are fantastic!

Congrats on joining the gym and going faithfully! That's awesome. I totally get that you need a break and it's wonderful that crafting time is your break. Your creative juices must be flowing big time as this card is fabulous. So bright and happy and summery. I really like the colors and how you set up the design of the card. The pun is fun, too!
