Many Thanks..

Hello! I hope everyone had a great weekend. I sure did! Went and saw New Moon and it was quite enjoyable. Team Edward!! ;)

Anyhoo, today's card follows Ms Taylor's sketch #92 and Ms Dawn's Raspberry Suite Color Challenge #19. I really like color challenges because I can very easily get stuck using the same colors over and over and this allows me to break out of that. This month's challenge has FIVE colors!! It was a little intimidating at first but I think I like how this card turned out. :)

I went to Michael's today, with the intention of just looking *wink* but I found a patterned paper that caught my eye. It's Basic Grey's Euphoria... and I believe this paper is called Fields. It has all five colors from the challenge and it's just so pretty. :)

Thanks for looking and as always, I'd love to hear what you think! :)

Stamp: StudioG Hampton Art ($ bin at Michael's)
Paper: PTI Dark Chocolate, Raspberry Fizz, Aqua Mist, Spring Moss, Lavender Moon, BasicGrey pp
Ink: Stazon Timber Brown
Other: Cricut Expression, SCAL, Recollections rhinestones
