Merry Monday Card Challenge #100

Merry Monday is celebrating our 100th Challenge, how exciting is that. In honour of this event we have a Sketch and a colour challenge.

I have to admit I struggled with this challenge, I don’t work with pink much and I don’t have a green cardstock that could be labeled as lime. I however have some Designer Paper that has both colours in it, I found some cardstock that is as close to lime as I could get although it looks a little darker in the photo. I did start out following the sketch to a T,  but I was not happy with the results so altered it just a smidge.
 
 
Stop by the Merry Monday Christmas Card Challenge blog to see all what the Design Team has created for our 100th challenge. Come play along with us.
 
Supplies: Cream and green card stock, Designer Paper-Basic Grey, Verve-Poinsettia Christmas, twine.




Cheers,
Nina
