If you’ve been following me for any length of time, you know that I’m so inspired by card challenges. I find it really fun to have to work within the specific parameters and try to come up with something I would not have ordinarily thought of. Today’s card is a shining example of just that. And I really went a little further than normal and combined two challenges…whoa, me!
The first challenge I saw was the Paper Players color challenge. To be honest, I find color challenges very, well, challenging and usually have a difficult time combining the called for colors. However, this particular color combination is one of my favorites.
Here’s the challenge board…
I knew exactly what stamp set I wanted to use but was still unsure of the design. And then I saw Atlantic Hearts Sketch challenge and knew just how I would create my card.
Here’s the sketch…
I used an all-time favorite stamp set from Power Poppy called Sage Advice. I don’t think it’s still current but may be available on the secondary market. I’ve listed all the materials used down below.
Thanks for checking in today. I hope your Tuesday goes well. I’m off to the dentist!
Take care,
Rosanne

Such a wonderful use of the colors, Roseanne. I love how you added the twine in the background. It adds another layer of fabulous texture and really helps to reinforce the herby theme. So glad you shared this with us at The Paper Players this week
