Wow, yes, this is one heck of a bright card, wouldn't you say? Totally out of my comfort zone ... Arielle had an interesting combination for this week's colour challenge, eh? But, I actually really really really like how this card turned out! I combined the colour challenge with two other challenges as well (I only have time for so many, ya know!). Mercy's sketches are always interesting and I love to play when I have the time. This one had called for three squares on the left side, but I kind of reinterpreted them as the two stars and the curly label shape. The other challenge was one from Moxie Fab World; a challenge to use floss in a project. I happen to have a ton of floss as I used to cross stitch quite a bit. I've got a project on the go still, but haven't spent as much time on it as I should (I'm making name/date/weight birth things for each of my kids; 2 down, 3 to go ...). Anyways, so, I had a ton of floss so I pulled out some red floss and threaded the buttons with it. Love the extra colour that adds!

Anywho, hope you're having a great weekend! Thanks for stopping in!
