hi there,
Here is my card for the Colour Challenge today. I was so very honoured when Betty asked me to be one of the guest DT's this month. Here are the colors we have for you to play with this week:
Not Quite Navy (it's like, lets see, not quite navy blue, yah, does that help?)
Baja Breeze (it's like a Robin's egg blue)
Cherry Cobbler (it's a deep cranberry red that makes your heart sing!)
Neutrals of choice
Dessert option: Christmas in July or a winter theme hence the theme for my card.
I kept my card pretty simple. I stamped the winter image and after mounting added a white embossed piece behind. I scored a line top and bottom as well, sort of like framing the image.
Hope you like it and thanks so much for looking,
Karen

I absolutly LOVE THIS!! What a gorgeous image. It lends itself so well to being inked in one color. That sentiment is beautiful too. I can just HEAR how quiet and peaceful that scene is!
