MOJO 206 and Inkspirations 84

Over at Inkspirations, we were warned not to be afraid of their color combo challenge this week!

Although, I don't usually make cards with such vibrant colors, I wanted to give this challenge a try.  I paired it with the latest MOJO sketch challenge.

As always, the last challenge of the month is a choice between a round or square card.  Or if you're feeling really ambitious, you could do both.  I opted for the square.

I think it actually hurts my eyes when I look at this card!  My intention was to really make the bright colors be the focal point of the card and then throw in a smidge of Concord Crush to round things out.  I'm not entirely sure that I like the Concord Crush rectangle, but I do like the row of circles.  They're easy to do.  I just punched a 1/2-inch hole then punched a 3/4-inch hole around it.  And I've just noticed as I'm writing this that I didn't use a single stamp on this card!  I haven't done that in a long time, but there's plenty of space on the Tangerine Tango layer to add one later.

Thanks for stopping by!
