SCS COLOR CHALLENGE CC121

With a few SCS Challenges under my belt, I feel like my craft has gone to a whole new level! I have always been such a CASEr (Copy And Steal Everything), and have only designed when I had to. These challenges are just what I needed to motivate me to design my own work! Of course, there are so many FABULOUS designers on SCS that provide so much inspiration! Special thanks to Chat Wszelaki (nitestamper on SCS), friend and fellow SU Demonstrator, for encouraging me to try the SCS Challenges! Chat is an incredible designer! Her work is just amazing! (I stalk her gallery!) See her SCS Gallery HERE.

Today's Color Challenge (CC121) was to use the colors PRETTY IN PINK, CHOCOLATE CHIP, AND OLD OLIVE. Here's my design for the SCS Color Challenge CC121:

I was thrilled that BUD BASICS stamp set and BASICS OUTLINE JUMBO WHEEL made it to the new catalog! They were first introduced in the Summer '06 Mini Catalog. The Bud Basics stamp set has been such a versatile set! Unfortunately, the Chocolate Grosgrain Ribbon is no longer available in 1/4", and is now only available in 5/8". The Au Chocolate DP I used on this card didn't make into the new catalog either, but IS available in Red and Basic Grey.
