This is my second post for today

Gotta love these colours, though I don't think this was as successful as the card I posted earlier to day.  I had to walk away for awhile (to do the ironing - a great time to think) to work out how I could pull it together.  There are 2 different yellows on this card indicating my complete lack of yellow inks, also indicating it isn't one of my favourite colours.  Were it green, I have endless shades of that hue.

What you need
Cardstock - Bazzill Basics Orange, mid brown. yellow;  SU white
Patterned Paper - Autumn Abundance
Stamps - PTI Mat Stack 4 Collection
Ink - SU Early Espresso, Pumpkin Pie;  Brilliance Sunflower Yellow
Ribbon - SU pumpkin pie taffeta

I think I will also enter it in the Ribbon Carousel Challenge

A Very Satisfactory Combination

This is my second post for today, and possibly not the last.

Colour Throwdown #156  

Ribbon Carousel Challenge #17

To go along with this back to school challenge, was this one from Wee Memories.

And FINALLY, this great sketch from the Simon Says Stamp Challenge

OK, that all being said, here is the card

This was a great colour scheme, I had reservations but love the plum with Kraft.  It really does pay to have stuff lying all over your desk as it tends to get more use ie the patterned kraft paper.  Well that's my excuse for not tidying up often enough.

What you need

Cardstock - PTI Kraft;  SU Perfect Plum, So Saffron, white; X-press It Blending Card

DSP - SU Neutrals Pattern Stack

Stamps - MFT a la modes "You Rule"

Ink - Memento Sweet Plum, Tuxedo Black

Copics - E000, 00, 01;  E55, 57;  C0;  V12, 15, 17, 91;  Clear Spica pen

Die - PTI medium scallop

Ribbon - SU So Saffron Grosgrain

Button - PTI

Paper Twine - Annabelle Stamps

This must be a record ...

3 challenges with 1 card - don't think I have attempted that before.  I originally coloured these tulips for the recent Sweet Stop challenge, but would have had to cut it down to fit on the card, which wasn't going to happen.  So when I saw the colours for Play Date Cafe, I was delighted I would be able to use it.

There maybe afew more posts today as it is a dreary old Sunday in Brisbane - perfect for cardmaking.
