Retro Sketches 4 and Color Throwdown 185

This week retro sketches has got another great sketch for us to try and the color challenge at Color Throwdown was too good to resist.




This card is pretty simple.  I used my favorite impression plate from PTI on the card base.  The main stamped image is from Just Believe and I added the "smile" sentiment from Fabulous Phrases.  Easy peasy and I was done!

Thanks for stopping by!
