This is my card for CC795. Karen is our hostess and she chose poppy parade, mango melody and old olive for her color trio. Dessert Option is a sentiment as focal point of card.
For my card I used the big sentiment from the Stampin'-Up set "life is grand". I stamped that in choc chip ink.
The berries are from the Stampin'-Up set "gift of fall". I stamped on crumb cake cardstock in poppy parade ink and then colored with Prismacolor pencils that matched the mango melody color.
Finished off my card by scattering some old olive glitter enamel dots. This card is off to a friend as a card of encouragement.

Of all the pretty elements on this card, the thing I like best is the way you colored the berries. They absolutely glow! The enamel dots make the card extra cheerful! Your friend will love it!

You have created yet another beautiful card. I love how you colored the berries. The shading is spot on. It looks great against your background. You have inspired me to get out my colored pencils and do some coloring! TFS
