ColourQ 118 and Deconstructed Sketch 33

There are certain Stampin' Up! colors that I really love and even though they are retired I still have the ink and some cardstock left.  Lucky for me I have some Cameo Coral and Cool Caribbean so I didn't have to make a substitution for this week's ColourQ challenge.


The Cherry Cobbler looks really dark in this photo, but in real life it looks great with the Cameo Coral.  I added a little stitching to the edges of the Cool Caribbean cardstock because it looked really plain all by itself.  I inked up some of my new Christmas goodies for this card and used the latest Deconstructed sketch for my layout. The flower and leaves are from PTI and the sentiment is from Verve.


The weather  has been very strange this weekend.  Here we are into January and yesterday the temperatures were in the sixties!  More like spring than winter!  I don't like snow or cold weather all that much so I'm not complaining!

Thanks so much for stopping by!
