This card was made for two challenges. a colour challenge put forth by ColourQ, and a sketch challenge over at Pals Paper Arts.
I loved the colours over at ColourQ this week. I don't feel like I did them justice though. Then again, who else but Martha Stewart can make a bunch of stacked dishes look awesome?
Unfortunately, I don't have any Certainly Celery in my collection... I used Old Olive instead.

I'm disappointed I didn't do something a little "extra" with that strip of Old Olive (like add a scallop edge or something). I blame post-pregnancy brain on that oversight! :)

ReplyDeleteLove your rendition of the sketch challenge! Very creative use of balloons! And I like the piece of the old olive card stock without any additional punching... :)
