Barbara is our hostess this week and she has chosen the colors calypso coral, bermuda bay, elegant eggplant and old olive. Desert is to use pearls or rhinestones. Come and join in the challenge – you may be our next favorite!!
On my main panel I used a Tim Holtz stencil, sponged the 3 colors, stamped the sentiment and the small starbursts (in eggplant BTW – even though they look black), matted w/ eggplant cs and popped up this panel with dimensional tape. A quick and fast card -no dessert for me this week – I tried rhinestones but the starbursts begged for more color, and I caved.

What a fantastic looking card. The stencil goes so well with the starburst stamp...great idea to use them together. The challenge colors work so well with your design. Pinned to my CAS board.

Great card, Maura! You took this week's colors and created an amazing collage with them. I love the eggplant starbursts, and the enamel dots are perfect!

I love the look of this card! The splatters are so fun and whimsical, and the starbursts are bold and graphic. A great combo! And your enamel dots are just divine. I agree about the colorful dots being better than the rhinestones. LOVE it!
