The Best Thing... - Color Dare #232

Color My Heart Color Dare Challenge #232: This week’s colors shown in the Photo are Fern, Sapphire, Lemon & White Daisy (All and Only).  This color challenge was combined with MoJo Monday's Sketch #485

We encourage you to use CTMH products; however you may use any products to participate using closest to colors ... join in the fun.  You don't need a blog to submit your entry...if you are a member of Pinterest you can set up a Folder and link your entry to our Challenge.

When looking through the many design paper packets there were so few design papers that fit these colors ... so I pulled out the Paper Fundamentals and selected several geometric designs for my card.   So there was a lot of cutting to size, some die-cut borders and then rather than stars I decided to use feathers ... why I don't know ... just like feathers on a card and have had the die for a long time and never used.  And the bow on the sketch looked exactly like my Pretty Pink Posh twine and bows.  



This is a close-up of the feathers so you can see the embossed detail included in the die-cut.  Click on picture to get a larger photo for detail..  



  
Stamped a couple more feathers and placed on the inside corner of the card.

I see you dug out the LARGE stripe patterned paper for this card! It's a good place to use it - the feathers add a nice touch and you ended up with a great looking card.
