JUGS Challenge #16

Hi Everyone!! It's a super wet Thursday for us. It's been POURING all week. Yesterday we had some pretty loud thunder and the kids were a little bit freaked out at school. Supposed to rain all week, so while it's cold and wet outside...i'm getting crafty inside!

Here is the JUGS challenge this week...it's a color challenge.


These are so pretty together, I just love the combo. I used papers from Papertrey Ink, scarlett jewel, white, spring blush (I think??) and smokey shadow. The stamps are also from Papertrey Ink.


I love that big flourish stamp. I added some jewels to the flourish and aroundt he sentiment. I love the Mega Mixed messages set from Papertrey, there's a sentiment for every card in that set!


I really enjoyed these colors, they will definitely be a great combo for future cards. I hope you are having a great week. We are braced for more rain today and tomorrow. Just makes me want to stay home and craft and bake. Maybe i'll try a new recipe...hmmmmm..!!! Thanks for stopping by, friends!!

Elegant and clean and a fab card! I rarely use burgundy, but I really loved using these colors too. Thank goodness for a color challenge to get me out of my own color box, right?! So glad I stopped by! :>
