So Saffron & Certainly Celery


When I first saw the color combination from Dynamic Duos I thought it would be easy to create a card using the specific color combination.  To be honest, I seriously struggled.  I had all of these ideas in my head and none of them worked out.  I think I remade the card 3 or 4 times and it is still not awesome.

Stamp: Button Buddies, Bloomin' Marvelous
Cardstock: Whisper White, So Saffron, Certainly Celery

  4. Hi Shelly, yes, sometimes too many ideas can be as difficult as not enough... I like your gorgeous ribbon and the cute little buttons in the centre of the flowers with twine. Lovely use of this week's challenge colours. Thank you for sharing your card with us this week at Dynamic Duos.
