I was able to play in Becky's Compose a Card Challenge #4 and I just LOVE her color combo! I added the Summer Sunrise to mine because of the flowers. If you haven't played in Becky's challenge, it's a lot of fun! She gives you cutting instructions and a color combo, but the stamps and layout are all up to you! This challenge called for True Black, Ripe Avocado and White, using a negative stamp for a border and the positive for the background. You also had to use a Vintage button and some satin ribbon.
I used the Text Boxed set from Papertrey Ink for my card. The sentiment is from Mega Mixed Messages. I added some stitching along
the right side to balance how I offset my focal piece. If you haven't played along in one of Becky's challenges, give it a try! You will love it! Thanks for stopping by today and have a great day! SUPPLIES USED: Stamps- Text Boxed, Mega Mixed Messages (PTI); Ink- Onyx Black (Versafine), Ripe Avocado, Summer Sunrise (PTI); Paper- True Black, Ripe Avocado (PTI); Accessories- button, jute, satin ribbon; Finished card measures 4"x8"

Great card, love this color combo (just used it for a card posting tomorrrow except I used brown instead of black).
Love the layout as well!
Beautiful!!! Just love the combos!:)
So pretty! What a great idea to use the negative images at both ends and perfect stamp set for this challenge!
How pretty! Adding the yellow is such a cheery touch for those flowers, I agree.
Oh wow. Charmaine this card stands out! Aren't you clever to have added the yellow and I LOVE how you changed up the LO just a bit to add pizazz. I WAS going to attempt this challenge, but your card just outshines anythign that I could even come up with!
This is so beautiful, Charmaine...and I love the colors!!
Beautiful card ........ and gives me hope of spring!!!
Oh my goodness. I thought that was paper! GORGEOUS, bold card! Now if the snow would only melt so the flowers could start coming out.
Big cyber hugs
So cheery and springy!!! I like how you used the negative image on both sides of your focal piece!!!
This is beautiful Charmaine! I love that you incorporated yellow into the color scheme.

O my word this is beautiful! Love the little bit of spring that you snuck in there with the yellow!
