We have a nice broad sketch from Stamp Ink Paper #114 today - I'm matching it up with SU! Only #182's "blast from the past" theme! And just for fun, I'm adding in these "primary" colors (yuk, yuk) from Color Throwdown #458! I also realized I could squeeze in Retro Rubber #90's Back to School theme, but there's a little story, of course...
So, the day designing for all these challenges came up, I got to spend some time watching the shenanigans of my neighbor's daughter preparing to leave for college with her girlfriends, to their brand new first apartment! That's right, BIG kids move off campus as soon as possible, lol! So, I kid you not, this card is inspired by watching a crew of 6 girls huffing a truly hideous hand-me-down GREEN couch into the back of someone's truck, in said neighbor's driveway. Believe me, it was nowhere near as cute as the one on my card, though I did contribute some bright red plaid throw pillows for it, lol. Sorry, couldn't resist clearing out the guest room (aka, the room of retirement!) closet, and they really NEEDED them, I swear. The fait is accompli! Watch out, Colorado, they're on their way now, lol... (Yes, I do plan on mailing this to them all once their mom gives the word, lol.)
