When I first saw these colors I thought it would be easy to make a card. But once I started trying to make it work, it was a little more difficult than I had thought it would be. But after some trial & error, I came up with this one and I rather like how it turned out. TFL!!

Lovely card with a crisp clean look, Mary. (I see you are a fan of those DSP papers too) Love your layout and straightforward use of today's colors in a very well-balanced way.

You made a great card with the colors. I went through the very same thought and process with these colors. This one turned out really pretty and so clean. I like it.

I kept swapping the cs colors myself, Mary, trying to make it look right, and then I got it all figured out and really like the way my card turned out also. Yours is really pretty with the nesties, border punch and pretty dp!

VERY Pretty Mary!!! LOVE the polka dotted paper and lacey border! The ribbon looks fabulous and really "ties" (pun intended) this week's colors together beautifully!!!

I think you made this work really well! I know what you mean about wondering how some colors will ever fit together...I have the same reaction some weeks. I love the fancy border and the cut out scallop surrounding your flower..they're like bits of lace added to the design. Wonderful card!
