I was able to get to the Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge today. Check it out and try it. Their sketches are wonderful and you could win great prizes. Here's their link:
I wanted to make a birthday card for my Mom and thought I'd use this sketch to make one. I love the Branch Out stamp set and I wanted to try my hand at using the new in color melon mambo. I opted for melon mambo, soft suede and white for the color combo. I added some dazzling diamonds to the tree for a little sparkle. I ran my ribbon through a die cut tag, added prima flowers with pearls for the corner pieces and die cut corner pieces for the top corner pieces. I popped 2 of the panels up on dimensionals.
Thanks so much for taking the time to look and if you have a moment, let me know what you think!

Pam, I have been wondering where you were and now I come to your gallery and see this awesome card. I love the image, the Melon Mambo, your ribbon tag, corners...just everything about this card. It is absolutely yummy and I know your Mother will love it sooooo much. Oh, yea, the Melon Mambo looks super with the Soft Suede. You're rockin'!
