Today I have prepared a card using the colors from the Color Throwdown challenge blog and am embarrassed to say, this is my first time submitting a card using their challenge and find my asking "where in the world have I been" - I visit them often (my great friend, Broni, is a part of the design team and always have a great time commenting on her submissions) but just haven't participated before. Well, today is the day :) I love these colors and can see that I will be using it often. I not only used the color challenge on this card, but used the sketch given to us today by The Sweetest Thing blog - I have used Karen's sketches before and always find them fun to do. I couldn't think of a sentiment for this card, so just left it blank and when something comes up and I feel this card will fit in perfectly, will put something in the lower right hand corner.
I am looking forward to a great Sunday full of football and cleaning out Photoshop (I am still learning how to use this program, but am finding it to be full of surprises and is tons of fun to play with) - I have so many photos that can be cleaned out. After that, I think I'm going to take a peak at Etsy to see about setting up a store there (I have a friend from working who is always telling me I need to do this and have finally decided to give it a try).
Well, I'm off. Hope you all have a great day and I'll see you soon.
Janet
Supplies: card stock is from SU; designer paper - lemonade by BasicGrey; embossing folder - textured impressions by SU; yellow ribbon is from Osprey; flower roses are from Michaels
It's like a beautiful garden, Janet! Those roses just fit the challenge colors perfectly! Have fun with Photoshop, and let me know how the Etsy thing goes. I'm curious about that! I'm so glad you FINALLY decided to play along with us and hope you'll be back often!
