What wonderful colors for a masculine card, which is our dessert this week BTW. And this is one color combo I never would have thought of on my own. My card base is Cajun Craze with a large mat of Cajun Craze DP. My narrow strip is also Cajun Craze DP matted in Very Vanilla. I stamped my image in Night of Navy and matted on Night of Navy after using the ticket corner punch on the corners. I think now that if I had matted my Soft Sky DP in Very Vanilla instead of Soft Sky, that it might have made it pop a little more. I also added some navy brads and popped up my image. I used last week's sketch challenge 450 as I missed that challenge. It has been such great fun and such an honor guest designing with Mary, Vicki, Karen, Kim & Robin this month. Thank you ladies for letting me tag along with you Am looking forward to what the gallery holds in store for us this week. Thanks for looking.

Mary what a great masculine card... love that you used the cajun craze for the base.. it is so outstanding... also love the stripes and dots and layout with the brads... well done...
That Cajun Crazy background paper is wonderful. Great use of today's color combos and last week's sketch challenge. Well done.
