Here is my CAS215 color challenge card. I didn't have all three colors so I used SU Taken w/Teal, Regal Rose, Certainly Celery and Basic Brown (as neutral.) I used my PSX peacock stamp for the first time ever. Colored w/markers, direct-to-stamp. I wanted the peacock image to stand out more, so I re-stamped it, cut it out and glued it atop. Used an Andy Skinner crackle stamp to create the subtle background and stacked three Obsession Impression words, flush right for my sentiment. Distressed edges w/Basic Brown, direct-to-paper. Mounted stamped panel onto a Michael's Valu-Pack pink (close to the Regal Rose color) card base. Wanted to finish w/three small pink pearls but could not readily locate them. Drats!
THANKS for lookiing!

Love this! Love the image. My son used to tell me I was as pretty as a peacock and I'd tell him he's as handsome as a bald eagle. That was his favorite bird at the time. Anyway, you did a fab. job with this challenge! TFS
