My phone line is down, I have DSL internet service and it won't be repaired until Monday so I'm sitting here in the church typing up my blog so I can get my card to challenges on time. First up is for
Merry Monday.
After zooming in, the first thing that caught my attention in the photo was the plaid and since I had just gotten my stamp from Concord and 9th I wanted to use it. I also used my NBUS Sunny Studio Poinsettia.
I just had to make a card for
Loll's challenge using her splash watercolor technique. I've done it before but it makes such great backgrounds and I needed one for my NBUS wreath from SOA. For a link to her video tutorial, go to Loll's blog.
The wreath was embossed in gold and the word die and ribbon are teal glitter paper.
I'm keeping it short and sweet today because I'm also at the church to decorate the altar for All Saint's Sunday and the friend helping me is here.
Thanks for dropping by and may you never lose your internet.

Gorgeous plaid with the poinsettia, Bobby! Just love the gold wreath on the watercolor background too! Thanks for playing along with us at Merry Monday!!
Two fantastic cards Bobby! LOVE the design of your plaid and poinsettia card. The gold shiny wreath and glittery teal accents are so pretty over the background colours on your second card. Thanks so much for joining me at my Splash Watercolour challenge. xx
Bobby, I love your big bold gingham, oh my, I may have to run over to concord & 9th! Your wreath in gold is beautiful! So sorry about your internet problems, by now it is probably fixed, but it can sure cause havoc when it is missing! Thank you for joining us this week at Merry Monday!
Gorgeous Bobby! I love that Concord & 9th stamp. So stunning!
OH NO! Good thing you get your email on your phone... these are both gorgeous, Bobby! MAD for the plaid, and the color you've used to make a splash!

Two beautiful cards, Bobby. That plaid is so awesome on the first one and your splash technique is fabulous. Thanks so much for joining us this week at Merry Monday.
What's not to love on these two lovely gems! Love each -- the bold plaid and that perfectly splashed backdrop!
so pretty....I am addicted to Loll's technique, so fun!

These are fantastic! I like the plaid and the modern design on your first card. The shimmery wreath on the second is lovely!
Such a striking poinsettia against the cosy plaid, Bobby ... and a gorgeous background to that beautiful wreath ... a fabulous duo! Hope your internet is back up and running by now! Hugs, Anita :)
Your plaid/poinsettia card: oh my! Gorgeous! That C9 stamp also made it's way to my collection and has seen some action. Need to take photos. Your Joy card is precisely that: a joy to behold! The background is simply stunning! LOVE these!
