A Touch of Sol

Hola Amigas! How is everyone? Yesterday hubby took off (DOESN'T HAPPEN OFTEN) and we took the little ones to the boardwalk. They love it...Solimar's fave game is skee ball and Joaquin likes it too but he prefers basketball...Then we were able to find a safe ice cream place (that actually has a machine just for allergy peeps)...Icing on the cake! Well today our challenge is brought to us by Carole'Anne. Do you see the color challene? She is having us pick an additional color. HMM!? I am going to have to check my Color Coach.

I am going to start with a Early Espresso base...it's always a safe bet...we will see...

Okay so I am layering with a sheet of Candy Cane DSP which is in the NEW Holiday Mini. This particular sheet is Baja Breeze and then I want to add Poppy Parade as an accent.

Still building...and I am already over the time because I thought this would be easy but its not...I also decide last minute to try to use a sketch from Inkspirations 4U...not feeling it... and here is my card...WHICH I WILL REDO! Using these colors...I don't like it...but its cool...
