Brand new Challenge Blog at 7kidscollegefund

I don't know about you , but I'm pretty picky about where I do my online shopping. I don't buy online a lot, but I'm crazy about these Sarah Kay stamps and I can't get them anywhere locally. I decided to purchase them from 7kidscollegefund and I can tell you I'm more than happy that I picked them to shop with. They have a great selection and the ship time is fantastic.
Well on top of being a great online store, they've started up their very own challenge blog aptly called 7 Kids College Fund Challenge Blog. Wednesday they posted their very first challenge--pink and dots and this is my card for the challenge.
My friend Silvia (who by the way makes the most awesome cards!) made a card using this labels 10 Nestie die and I just fell in love with it. I had to order it and another Sarah Kay stamp I can't wait to use.

Supplies
Paper: October Afternoon Fly a Kite, My Mind's Eye Laundry Line, Coordinations cardstock, white cardstock, Strathmore Watercolor paper
Stamp: Sarah Kay Spring Is Back
Inks+: Derwent Watercolor pencils, Tattered Rose Distress Ink, Cotton Candy Stickles
Tools: Nestabilities Labels Ten (S5-022)
Miscellaneous: Recollections Adhesive pearls, Prima mini roses, Celebrate It ribbon

I'm trying to experiment more with background elements. So much to learn.
Hope you like the card!
