Calendar Girls: 'use what'cha got'...

Hello everyone...

dang I am two days late for submitting this card for the Calendar Girls' challenge :/

I actually had the wet embossing part all done but then I took sick...and still am feeling bleahhhh

with chills and fever! Yikes...definetly not the Easter Holiday Celebration I was looking for...*sigh*

I wanted this card done and blogged today as tomorrow we start a new month AND it is Easter Sunday ,when every Christians celebrate our Lord  Resurrection! *Praise HIM*

Anyways, here below is the challenge proposed to all of us CG by Miss March 

- the uber wonderful Miss Tami -  in her own words:

 " MARCH 2013 CHALLENGE
Um, I hope I do not hurt anyone's feelings here but we are all a little bit of paper hoarders!!!
Well, we are going to have to give up the security blanket for March. I would like to see your best created card with NO designer paper. *gasp*.....*thud* {I think J just hit the floor}.
So go ahead and grab your 'old school stamps' - yep, like a set you have not used in years - and create a card for the Calendar Girls.
Oh, and let's try to keep in theme with 'use what'cha got', please no new purchases for this round. Use what'cha got...well, everything but designer paper that is!
I cannot wait to see what my friends come up with. It is always something to look forward to

 Miss March: Tami! "

First of all...I loved this challenge...thank you TAMI for proposing it...♥

 For my card I used the SU! Medallion as the main background and had it white embossed and sponged with SU inks in pastel colors. Then sponged the rest of very vanilla c/s in Apricot Appeal.

I also used the set you see here (the sentiment too is part of that set and is missing from pict.as I forgot to included) I have NO idea what the name of this older SU!set is. I had it for years and years and finally inked it today for the first time....yikes....I really SHOULD use what I've got and not be distracted by new stamping staff....really hard to do!!! I love this challenge so much, that I think it should be done regularly! The hardest part was not using any d/p in my project, but the tecnique used here easily provided a pop of color...and I am all about color!♥

I hope you peeps like my contribution this month, sorry about the tardiness....and now I'm off under the covers yet again...but not before wishing a

VERY BLESSED EASTER CELEBRATION TO ALL OF YOU AND YOUR LOVED ONES!!
