SCS Color Challenge - #424

I am the Hostess for the challenge this week.  I chose Cameo Coral, Primrose Petals and White.  The dessert is using lace.

I used the Inspired By Stamping sentiment from Big Wishes II with the Fancy Label Dies I.  While garage sailing over the week end, I found a score of vintage lace -- [an entire bag stuffed] for $2.  It worked perfectly for this card.  I also used the pretty Roses from Inspired By Stamping.

I am entering this card for the CASE Study Design Team call.  I really like that challenge, so I figured I'd give it a shot.  I had to find a stamper to CASE, and I instantly thought of Donna Wardle, over at Donna's Diary. I just love the way she layers her cards.  Here is the card I CASED:

I kept the gorgeous layout, and the use of lace, while changing the papers and sentiment [though I kept it birthday too].  For the DT call we were suppose to go outside our comfort zone, while still keeping our style.  I don't usually use so many layers [out of my zone], but, I did keep it clean, and simple. Wish me luck -- my fingers are crossed.

Meanwhile, do you like the colors?  Come on over to SCS and play along -- we would love to have you join in.


Thanks for stopping by~
