For You! PP195, Paper Craft Crew #93, Seize the Birthday

May 14, 2014

 I am back home and have to share a few thoughts about the Cher Concert!!!  OH MY GOSH!!!!!!!!!  She is amazing, fabulous, fantastic and all of the adjectives you can think of!!!!  The show was absolutely one of the greatest concerts I have ever been to! If you ever get the chance to see her, GO!  You will never forget the experience!  




Now, back to reality!  I made this card for three challenges today!  I have never done that, but thought I would give it a try!  The  Paper Players Color Challenge this week features Calypso Coral, Pear Pizazz and So Saffron.  The colors are soft and subtle and sometimes I have a hard time making these colors work.  I think they are so beautiful, but I am such a BRIGHTS kind of girl that I seem to spend a long time making my cards with lighter shades.  The Paper Craft Crew Sketch Challenge offered the perfect sketch for my card!  I love it when that happens.  I also needed to make a birthday card for a dear friend, and that's where Seize the Birthday Challenge works for my card today!!!  



               
              I hope you enjoy my card today!  It was made with love!
