This is for the color challenge as well as the teapot Tuesday challenge. To find out the background story for the teapot one, look here: Forums at Splitcoaststampers
Martie McGraw is throwing a party in New Orleans, for Mardi Gras. Everyone else has brought a lot of bling and confetti, so now she and her new found partner are out dancing up a storm. (No wigs or masks needed for these lovelies LOL!)

A very generous member of WishRAK, amaranthine, sent me several Art Impressions stamps, so I will be using them often. I did find this a bit of a challene to color - need to work on that! I have no soft suede, but blended olive and a light brown prisma and I think it is a close imitation. (By the way - some of you have said you do not use much purple. I think I make up for all of you.)
Card is 4.5x6.25

Fun - I have seen them at some event around here and they are such a fun couple. That is how me and my DH are going to be if we make it a few more years!

Well, I think that purple looks wonderful. Your coloring is fantastic and that embossing is a wonderful accent. This image is just too funny and the sentiment too! Love it.
