Give Thanks for FMS155 & CCC14

This card is for two different challenges. Freshly Made Sketch 155 and the Creative Challenge Club 14.  I love the simple sketch for Freshly Made Sketches.  I finally purchased the scallop tag and this is the first card I have used it on.  I see this punch being used a lot more in my future.









I loved the color challenge for Creative Challenge Club.  I think I managed to fit all 5 colors on my card without making it look like it had too much going on.

I always stamp the darkest color first when making my own background paper.  It makes it easier to fill in with the lighter colors as I go.  This stamp set is perfect for making background paper.  These colors just go great together too I think.  I never really thought of pool party as a fall color but it really adds something to this color pallet.  I cut the burlap ribbon edge off for my embellishment.  The strip of Very Vanilla on the tag is 1 3/4" wide.  To make it so the holes in the tag actually lined up I used the circle punch on the Pool Party tag to make its hole bigger.
