Be Mine...

Happy Monday!!!

I hope everyone had a great weekend! The weather is still a bit too cold for my liking. We are still getting mid-30s. I spent all day yesterday with my family shopping for jackets and gloves. I say, **all day** because it seemed like every store has been ransacked and out of cold weather clothing! Luckily, I found a pair of really comfy leather gloves at Target for half off! Yayy!! I'm so glad I found them as my hands get cold pretty quickly! :) I hope everyone is keeping warm.

Okay, on to my card! Today's card is my *humble* attempt at Ms Kristina Werner's Color Challenge #57. Oh my goodness, these colors!! I wasn't sure how all of these colors were going to fit in one card! But, after perusing other talented ladies' creations, I mustered up enough courage to take it on! Weee!!!


Since the color combo was a real challenge, I thought I'd keep the layout simple and chose Ms Taylor's Sketch for this week.

I also incorporated JUGs Technique Challenge - Stitching. How d'ya like that?? I managed to combine three challenges! Wow! hee hee.

I hope you enjoy this card. I had so much fun making it! :) Have a great week everyone!! :)
