3 Colors for 3 Challenges

Today's card was made especially for three challenges, using three colors! First, over at The Paper Players, LeAnne has color challenge to use Stampin' Up!'s Lost Lagoon, Soft Seafoam and Lemon Lolly. Fortunately I had all three in inks and paper. I wanted to combine that with the challenges to use doodles over at Try A Sketch on Tuesday, and over at their sister challenge Double Trouble. Although I don't think I qualify for the second part of Double Trouble, which was to use a bold pop of color.

I wanted to stay true to the Paper Players colors, which really was a challenge because Soft Seafoam and Lemon Lolly are such subtle colors. Thankfully the Lost Lagoon was strong enough for the doodle in this card.

I'd love to try some freehand doodling some day. Even those light bulbs below look like something I may be able to do. But I wanted to play it safe (and have it look good) so I opted for a doodle design stamp set.

After making the card to the challenge specifications, it felt a little bare, so I perked it up with a white ribbon and self-stick rhinestones. I wished I had some Lost Lagoon ribbon, for I feel it would have looked much better. But I had nothing that really matched. You don't realize how many different shades of green there are sometimes. But I'm happy with the card in general.

 Here's my complete supply list:

• White Card Stock
