I'm sure you were expecting a St. Patty's Day card.... sorry to disappoint! All weekend (in my spare time) I attempted to make a card for this week's Color Dare. The inspiration is beautiful, but the cards I was making were not. There are parts & pieces in More Mustard, Real Red & Tempting Turquoise all over my stamping area... the ones that had any Gable Green are in the recycling bin - I just COULDN'T make it work! But since it's a challenge, I kept thinking about it. Around 9:30 last night, after Jeff & the kids went to bed, IT HIT ME! And it kept hitting me until midnight (lol) - but here it is...
I'm not sure if it's been posted yet, but the colors are from this week's Color Dare, and the sketch is from Card Positioning Systems. So my theory still holds true... there is always a way to use any color combo, as long as you have a great sketch!
The buttons are both Stampin' Up! and Papertey Ink. The sentiment is from PTI, as well, the Tiny Treats : Valentine set.
Have a great day!!! And THANK YOU so much for taking the time to visit!

What a great card! Hope you don't mind but I'm putting this card in my little map to keep in mind........
That is fantastic!! Love what you did with the buttons. To be honest, I'm getting tired of the green cards!
This is fabulous!! I love the buttons tied with twine, and the embossed background is a perfect touch! Thanks for joining us at CPS this week!
