I didn't think I had any inspiration for the CAS color challenge today. My sister covered my jewelry order from her home party until I could send her a cheque so I decided to make her a card to go with that. She LOVES (or used to anyway) koalas. I had gotten these cute little dotted notes at Buffalo Stamps n Stuff last spring and decided to mount the Koala on it. He turned out krafty and his leaves olivey so I decided to throw in a bit of pink and enter the challenge. He was much more simple when I just colored him, but I sponged pink into the original deckle edge nestie and it looked NASTY. So I cut him out and remounted him on a white oval sponged with a bit of blue. NEXT TIME it will be simpler!!!

Oh so CUTE, Michelle! I love how you colored the koala...ahhh, I see you are still hoarding stuff from Buffalo. I STILL haven't used all of that October Afternoon paper I bought after I saw yours in line (and then went running to get some myself !!
Sometimes we try things and they turn out awful; we re-work them and then you end up with this adorable card! How cute is this. I'm sure your sister will love it!
