This card is for today's SCS Color Combination Challenge~Rich Mustard at Midnight. Mary picked beautiful jewel tones that made me think of masculine. I also looked at some of the HYCCT challenges and decided to do a card for Kathy's Courage Challenge.
Thought I would include men in the breast cancer arena as they are also affected by it.
The layout is for this week's MFT Wed Sketch Challenge #92.
Enjoy!

this is a great card for all 3 challenges Peggy. Love that you made a masculine card for the hycct-I know a man who developed breast cancer-you used the challenge colors so excellently

Peggy this is so very true! I love how you layered the cc colors. In my opinion that is an important aspect that is sometimes overlooked. Love too the way you placed your button and twine. Very, very nice.

Wow, Peggy. I love the tailored lines of this bold design. The rich jewel tones of today's color challenge make this pop from the gallery. And you've found a perfect sentiment to invoke a feeling of courage. This is wonderful. Thank you for contributing to our gallery of courage.

How thoughtful, Peggy, to include the men. We tend to forget them sometimes, but they are affected too. This is a beautiful card. Love how you've used the MM as an accent color in the mats.
