Today's color challenge is:
NOT QUITE NAVY
CAJUN CRAZE
DAFFODIL DELIGHT
Other than Not Quite Navy, I don't have (and don't quite know what they are) the new colors. So, I came as close as I could.
This is part of a new set, Big Cats, being released by Mark's Finest Papers today. It is colored with Copics. There is also a lion and tiger head and numerous sayings in the set.
I don't think I was very successful with these colors and doubt I would ever use this color combo, but, Karen, challenge met and conquered. As tough as it was for you to post, it was tougher for me to come up with a card! Thanks a lot, Karen and have a great day!
Oh, also not having that wonderful striped grosgrain, I used yellow skinny grosgrain for my dessert!

Vicky, I just love the green eyes, they are stunning! Love the color combo for this week, it features blue of course, well not quite navy, that's in the palette of course. LOL
Well done my dear.
P.S. You might want to change your sc to CC, we can't get your card in the CC gallery...and that is soooo sad. hugsxo

Vicky, those eyes are amazing and paired with that sentiment this is truly a unique card! I like the charm and the dp, which reminds me of jungle foilage!
