Ah, nothing like waiting until the last minute to participate in Kristina's Color Inspiration Challenge this week. The kids are napping at the same time so I got busy. Boy, this only happens occasionally but when it does, I LOVE IT! Unfortunately for Eric, the laundry remains unfolded and wrinkled. Thank goodness he didn't marry me for my superb housekeeping abilities. Oh, and I'm eating all your Skittles, babe.

I AM IN DESPERATE NEED OF A PHOTO LIGHT BOX! This card is so much more vibrant IRL. Any suggestions?

Can't help you with the lighting, I fight with it as well. Your card is still beautiful.
Your card is lovely!
I bought a cheap one LIKE this one (this is not me on ebay, I have no ideas who is selling it). It's not great, but it is cheap. Be careful how close you have it to other things, it gets HOT.

If I didn't already have it, I would buy a better one. Maybe it'll "break" tee-hee

I love your card. Sorry I can't help with the light box...I have been trying to take my photos of my projects outside.
I knew I shouldn't have told her where those Skittles were!

Simply lovely- great job!
wow, this is gorgeous!
sorry I can't help with the lightbox either, I have to rely on daylight, daylight globes and WW cardstock to reflect some light!
ooooh mary - your card is just beautiful. your whole blog is beautiful and the pics of Gregory & Leah are gorgeous! thanks for the light box tip - will you let me know how it works if you get one....
its really amazing how much difference lighting can make on a card.... your card looks gorgeous however you snapped it!

your card is so stunning. The only advise I have for taking photos of your cards is to be by a window with lots of natural light and turn off your flash. hope that helps, good luck :)
This is a very beautiful card! I like how everything on your card works together to make it so pretty!
Very pretty and yes I need one of those light boxy things too! lol

I love your card. Congrats on making the Top 10 list!
Beautiful card! Love what you did! Congrats on top 10 too!
Gorgeous card!!! My suggestion is to take the picture outside or inside somewhere with a lot of natural light. Another too, not sure what camera you have, but if you an SLR with RAW ability, take the picture in RAW, in natural light, and you can edit it so much more. IF you have an SLR, I like to lower my aperture too so that I get that hazy fuzzy background.
Congrats on top 10! Thanks for the lovely comments on my blog. Your kids are so darling.
Such a cute card!
