This card is for the color challenge, CCMC-OCC1, on Create with Connie and Mary 2013 Occasions Edition. These colors were a real challenge for me. Not something I would typically choose. I had to think about it for a day. Once I saw the primrose and red as flowers in my head the whole card just came together! Waaaaaah!!! - I had to use my very last scrap of pool party on this card. Oh my!

Lol - that last scrap of Pool Party went to great use - I love the touch of Pool Party behind the flowers w/the brads in the center! Thanks for playing along with the CCMC Color Challenge!!

I like how you inked your stamp in Basic Black over colored cardstock and the little bit of black with the ribbon and sentiment is perfect to offset the other colors!
