Sketches! in pink, banana and rose

I did it again! Combined multiple challenges into one, that is. I really hope none of the PTB mind that I do that from time to time. If anything, one would think it's great because it introduces followers of one challenge to the others :) Right??? Okay, I'm justifying here...LOL. Anywho....

This card is my creation for the color challenge over at Color Throwdown Weekly Papercrafting Color Challenges. Every week, they give you a color combo to create with. They colors listed are Stampin' Up colors, I believe, but being as awesome as they are over there, they welcome you digging through your own stash of any old brand paper and finding similar shades. The colors this week were, Pretty in Pink, Barely Banana, and Regal Rose. My colors were similar shades from the DCWV cardstock line.

Once I had my color palette chosen, I headed over to Sketches! by Tamara to check out her card sketch this week. She never ceases to amaze me and this week did not disappoint. You can see the original sketch by clicking HERE. Thanks for looking :) I'm off to create more cards. I absolutely LOVE when I'm in the zone :)

Once I was done and moved on to the next card idea I realized it also fit this week's challenge to use food or drink as a theme in your creation over at Cute Card Thursday. Lucky me...three birds, one stone :) Make sure you check out this blog because they always have fun challenges like that! Every Thursday :)
