PDCC27 Card Challenge

I found a card challenge blog that looked interesting to me this past week, so I'm going to give it a shot. The Play Date Cafe offered up the following color challenge for this week.




Here's my card.



My card base is Bazzill and the designer paper is from the Basic Grey Periphery Collection. I stamped the heart and sentiment with Memento London Fog Ink and embossed the heart with clear embossing powder. I used some distress inks, ribbons, buttons, and Kaiser pearls.

Thanks for stopping by.

I thought the color challenge here was too tough for me, but you really did a great job ! Did you use scissors on the bottom ? Hardly anyone uses them, and yet I think they look so pretty.

Yup, I did use nestabilities on both tags on my green card today. I had to get the die for the white one on ebay - my local Ben Franklin only has a few choices. The white paper I got in a packet at Target of all places - there were several colors, cheap, and I think a really nice texture.

Have a super duper day, or I guess evening by now !!
