Lucky To Know You

 Hi crafty friends!

I hope you are having a wonderful day so far!

Today starts a new challenge over at the Cupcake Inspirations Challenge blog.

Challenge #563 is a color challenge! Use Sky blue, Pink & Red on your project!

Here is a look at what I created:

I always seem to struggle with Color Challenges. They rank right up there with Masculine cards when it comes to me lol! I'm not sure why. Maybe it's just me. Anyone else struggle with color challenges?

I decided to keep my card super simple. I pulled two different blues and two different pinks that I felt went with the above colors and a piece of red. I cut all my papers into thin strips, I keep them all at 1/4" except for the red, which I made a tad thinner. Once I had my strips cut, I added some adhesive to a piece of white cardstock and added my strips at an angle, repeating the pattern. I trimmed off the overhang, rounded the corners and added it to a light blue cardbase. Next, I took a word die and cut my greeting out of a piece of white cardstock & adhered a piece of red cardstock to the back. I popped it up onto my card front with foam tape. I added some little hearts and a flower, punched out using the scraps, along with some white Nuvo drops to to complete my card. I really like how it turned out!

I hope you will stop by the Cupcake Inspirations Challenge Blog and take a look at what the rest of the team created and play along with us! I would love to see what you create and how the cupcakes inspired you!
