Color Throwdown Challenge Card

Happy Hump Day Everyone!
I know you're probably thinking that my posts are getting later & later right? In a sense you're correct but let me explain. There are certain challenges that I love to participate in on a weekly basis but I've been finding it hard to accomplish this goal. I've decided to make my challenge cards the day that they're posted instead of the day after. Make sense?

Now to answer the question from yesterday's post......the things I LOVE about those cards: they all have ribbon, one sparkles & shows me a new way to use that butterfly set, one used my fave punch & a really cool color combo....last but not least---the pink one shows me how to use that Vanilla Hardware & that card is layered like mine usually are....LOVE THAT!!!

K, my post is for the Color Throwdown challenge to use Pink Pirouette, Sage Shadow & Cameo Coral. Not an easy combo for me but after looking @ today's Sketch Challenge from SCS.....it all came together! Thanks ladies for another wonderful challenge.....I'm looking forward to the next one!!!

I'm off to complete my challenge cards for the blog groups I'm in.....wish me luck! Thanks so much for stopping by and have a great rest of the day!!
TTFN,
Hugs,

Supplies:
Bella Toile & Fresh Cuts ss; Pink Pirouette, Sage Shadow, Basic Black & Whisper White cs; Pink Pirouette, Sage Shadow & Cameo Coral ink; Eyelet Border, Scallop Square, 1 1/8 Square & Ticket Corner Punches; Whisper White Satin Ribbon & Vintage Brads

  16. Jackie: Beautiful card! Love the colors and the sketch! I also like your thought process -- create the card on the day of the challenge! Simple enough . . . I'm up to that challenge myself (but I'll start next week! wink, wink).
