I created todays card for submission in the Colour INKspiration Challenge #CI144 .

As soon as I saw the the color challenge Azure Afternoon, Parakeet Party, Lemon Lolly, Bubble Bath and Crushed Curry, I knew which stamp set I wanted to use! I've been waiting till just the right time to use that kite and that turtle!! LOL!

Through the end of June I will be featuring at lease one of the new Stampin' Up!® colors in every card that I make. Todays card features 3 of the colors: Azure Afternoon, Lemon Lolly and Bubble Bath.
