PPC-CC#21 Wings of Friendship

Happy Monday! How was your weekend? Mine was great...did some more outside work in the yard and in the garden and then sent both kids off for the week! Calvin is off to camp and Kimberly is off to a friends house and helping out at VBS teaching the little 4-year-olds :) Whatever SHALL I do without kids?!?! I am *sure* I can find something to do....hee hee


Now, onto this week's color challenge at Picture Perfect Creations.....I thoroughly enjoyed this combo! I love, love, love the new colors - especially Cherry Cobbler and Early Espresso! They are so dark and rich! Megan paired them up very nicely with Pretty in Pink and Crumb Cake this week:

I used the neat sketch from Our Creative Corner:

...here is my card using both challenges:

Stamps: Wings of Friendship; Paper: Whisper White, Early Espresso, Crumb Cake, Cherry Cobbler; Ink: Early Espresso, Cherry Cobbler, Pretty in Pink; Accessories: paper and crochet flowers, brads, glue dots



I really don't know WHY I didn't get this stamp set sooner....I really, really like it! I stamped the main bird image first with Early Espresso, then re-stamped it with Cherry Cobbler and Pretty in Pink so that I could cut out the birdie and 2 flowers to pop them up. I really like how this card turned out - the colors are FABBY!! Thanks, Megan for such a wonderful color combo! Be sure to link up your creation at the PPC Challenge Blog with InLinkz for your chance to win!!
