DTC #191 "Celebratory 7th Anniversary Raffle "Enjoy Your Special Day"

This is my Design Team project for Double Trouble's 7th Anniversary "Raffle Celebration". My pick was the Pink Raffle Ticket for a "Birthday"... I included Twisted Sister's optional twist to use some Kraft Paper or Like, and Double Dare's dare to use our sister challenge Try a Sketch on Tuesday #670)which starts on May 13th. This card will not be entered in TSOT challenge due to the backlinking rule but used as an example of combining the two challenges for interested participants. 



The background consisted of two patterned papers, both using Kraft color in the patterns and adhered to a Kraft border.  Flowers were cut using white cardstock, colored using Color Dare's graphic (blue/green + one color of choice, purple).  Kept close to the TSOT Sketch using some pretty die florals and the Color Dare Challenge #651 was perfect for my special birthday card.  Flowers were cut using white cardstock, colored using Color Dare's #651 graphic(blue/green + color of choice purple) and some adhered with 3D thin foam tape for dimension.  

The two panels on the left-hand side were cut with a stitched die using same design paper, colored and adhered to match the stripes on the background paper. Sentiment stamped on patterned paper, bordered with Kraft and adhered with 3D thin tape again matching the stripes on background paper. 

Had extra cuts of flowers, colored and placed on the r-h inside corner of card base. 

Please hop on over and join us at Double Trouble, have fun with our 7th Anniversary Raffle Celebration and play along with our optional twist and dare while earning additional chances to our random draw. Check out the Design Teams inspirations, and then let us see what you create... hope to see you there.

Love the bright colors, Sue! When I was a young teenager, I used to say those would be my wedding colors ha ha! Didn't end up being the case but they sure look pretty on a card! Love this :)

Great take on the sketch, Sue. The colors are striking. I like the combination of papers you selected and the addition of the diagonal lines.
