Accessorize

The sketch this week from 2 Sketches 4 You:

The color challenge from Design Dollies:
 
I had a lot of fun with this card.  I used some colors I don't use very often and I pulled out some old stamps (Rustic Flowers and Journaling Jots) and did some background stamping - something I haven't done in awhile, used a neglected Cuttlebug folder and I used my new Cricut - Forever Young - so many fun, girlie images!  I also incorporated a few challenges: Pile it On (3 ribbons), Paper Cutz (summer theme), Practical Scrappers - embossing,  Clean and Simple (teal, white and one other color - does black count as a color???) and finally the OCC challenge - green and blue.
 
Stamps: Rustic Flowers; Journaling Jots (CTMH)
Cardstock: White Daisy, Ocean, Citrus Leaf (CTMH)
