Color Lab Challenge 44

Thursday is, of course, ColorLab challenge day and I've got to say that this color challenge totally rocks!

Whenever I see a deep color like Concord Crush paired with a bright color like Daffoldil Light I think that it's a match made in heaven. So today I took this fabulous color challenge and paired it with the Stamping 411 sketch challenge.
And as you'll see, I have not quite gotten over my obsession with the faux mother-of-pearl technique.

My only regret with this card is that I didn't twine some crochet floss or baker's twine around the Concord Crush layer.  I think it would have softened up the card a bit.

Thanks for stopping by today and I hope you have time to check out the ColorLab.  The design team has some fabulous inspiration for you and we'd love to see what you create!

Wow! I love the bold contrast of that purple panel against the PP and how THAT contrasts with the soft delicate flowers!
