I like to use bright colours on my cards but this one hits a whole new level of bright even for me!! I used the colours from PaperCrafts Connection's Colour Inspiration Challenge #9 and decided to just go big! I love that Woodware flower punch and it seemed to go with the crazy colours. (Going to enter this in the 4 Crafty Chicks and Simon Says Stamp Anything Goes challenges too.)Despite the ridiculous humidity, I went for a run today for the first time in ages and I have a feeling that I'm going to be pretty darn sore tomorrow. Not sure what possessed me but hopefully whatever it was will strike again sooner rather than later!

Wow, bright is right! I think you made a good choice keeping your card so clean and graphic -- awesome!
Definitely bright, but LOVE the layered die cuts... very groovy.
Groovy! I think I need to run again too, but I'm afraid half of me will be left behind dragging.
Loving how you used these colors and the way you layered them. Very retro! Thanks for sharing your creation with me at 4 Crafty Chicks.
The brighter the better I say! LOVE these funky colours and and your retro elements are the perfect match!
i'm feeling the seventies ... love the flower punch, totally works with the throwback feel of this card, any hippy would be proud of you i'm sure!
ooo I'm in love with that flower punch now, so retro, perfect match for the punchy colours..what a cheerful card:)

Bright and cheery, Jen! Love your card. thanks for popping by to see me and leaving comments! I loved that card, too! Is that vain? I don't always love my cards. I guess when you haven't gotten much sleep they flow better! but I do love the colors this time.
Gorgeous card! Love all those layers - neat way to use the nestabilities! Thanks for playing at 4 Crafty Chicks.
Very cute!

Had to get my sunnies (sunglasses) out for this one. But ... what a funky design! Hugs xxaxx
Wow fab Jen! That is a very apt sentiment!
Had to go and find out about your dogs and the chicken after your comment and ewww! At least my cat doesn't wreak murder! (well not yet anyway!)
Absolutely awesome card! Love the retro feel and that flower punch is groovy! heehee This really is a spectacular way to highlight the sentiment with some fantastic colors!
Okay, now I'm wondering if you haven't blogged because you're still sore from running? (ha ha) Running in humidity is rough--you go, girl! Love the card, especially the balance of colors. The pink "olives" are super cute!!
Jen, this is bright and gorgeous! I love how you used those nesties. Wish I had these colours. :P
Wow! This color combo is fabulous! Good luck on the running. I recently started myself. Well more like jog/walking! LOL!
hope jem's new life jacket is working well, from pollyanna
I love how you incorporated all these bright colours into such a great card. Fabulous idea to use the mats.
