Boy did I have troubles with the Color Challenge today. I am just in a slump. I was sick yesterday and I guess my brain is still in a slump. I did this card twice and did not like the first one (see bottom of post) so I took it apart and re-did it. Now I think I liked the first one better. I guess I should just take some more meds and go back to bed....My new catalog order will be coming in today so I will have new toys to play with tomorrow. I did not order much as I am saving for February Sale-a-bration. Maybe fresh stuff will get me going again.

well I actually like the revised version better but both are great cards - I'll have to try this color challenge!
ReplyDeleteI can't tell which one I like better! Are the pics on the top the same card? The scallop "bite" out of the front of the card is such a cool idea. I like both cards! It's easy to be self-critical but I think both are very nice and I'd be happy to receive either one. If I had to pick, I'd go with the one on the bottom.
ReplyDeleteOh, these are just fabulous! Love how they open around the scallop!
ReplyDeleteHmmm...the bottom one is my fav!
Both are great but I think the new one allows the focal point to stand out more. Fab! Love the way the scallop takes a "bite" out of the card!
ReplyDeletevery fun with the scallop cut out of the front of the card. Fun card....I'll have to give it a try.
ReplyDeleteI love the scallop cut out idea! I am definitely going to have to try this. I, too, like the new one better!
ReplyDeleteI love the scallop bite! What a great idea!
ReplyDeleteWow, I love these color combos! Will have to try them for myself :)
ReplyDeleteI love the way you incorporated the scalloped punch into the cover and the actual scalloped accent is on the inside...veeery clever.
