California Inspired Creation for Pals Paper Arts

If you're looking for the Christmas in July blog hop . . . click the icon below and it will take you to my Creative Block Creations for the upcoming holiday.  

Today I am showcasing a card inspired by my crafty place, StampNation.  I combined challenges from our California Vacation online event with some other challenges as you will soon see. I highly recommend you check out StampNation.  It is by far my favorite crafty place and the membership and design team are amazing.  There are always some craft creations to inspire, and the conversation is always friendly and amazing. 

I created a card with gold on it for StampNation's first challenge of our California vacation.  The gold is for "the Golden State".  I combined this challenge with the sketch at Pals Paper Arts. 

Here is my card . . .

And the inside deserved a little flair as well.  

A fun card to create!
