You're an Original Card Color Challenge

Tonight is the last call for America Idol. I can't wait! I think it was a sure thing early on that the 2 Davids would be head to head on the last night. I really think I am fine with either one, although I think that David Cook has changed the most over the past months. I watch, but don't vote (tsk, tsk). Are you a voter???

Anyway, here is a card that did for Erica's (One Creative Life) color challenge. I used Close to my Heart colors and picked the best representation for Erica's colors. Check out her great examples -->HERE<-- I used a color resist technique for this card. I stamped with versamark and then embossed with clear powder. Then all I did was sponge over the entire card with my two colors. Easy, peasy, but with a lot of color and fun to do - of course! For the strip, I stamped with versamark again, but this time used white embossing powder.

Everything used is CTMH unless otherwise noted: Cardstock: Moonstruck, Ocean, White Daisy, Stamps: Rustic Flowers, Sensational Seals, Ink: Moonstruck, Ocean, Other: 2" Scallop punch, SU! Scallop punch, Circle punches

Thanks for stopping by; hope its dry where you are :)

Beautiful card! I love the color combo:) I'm a David Cook fan, but I have a feeling David A. is going to win:( I'm not a voter, just a watcher. We will see tonight! Thanks for sharing, like usual great work!

Card is so pretty, one of my fav color combos too! I don't even watch A.Idol, however my husband got sucked in last year, so I know when he is in a hurry to get home it must be AI night!
