CR84FN #70


Just a quick card to share today. I went on an impromptu trip to JoAnn's with my MIL and SIL, and got a new embossing folder, and some Spellbinders dies. So, of course I had to make some time last night to play with my new toys :) I didn't take a lot of time to browse the challenges, so I'm just linking up to one blog today...

This week's colors from CR84FN:




My card:

I probably should have used a different color for my 'aqua' color...this is what happens when you create things in low light.  This morning, when I went to photograph it...I noticed in the natural light that Marina Mist is more blue than aqua, and I probably should have gone with Baja Breeze, or maybe Soft Sky. But, I had fun with my new tools, so that's all that really matters, right? :)


Here is my full Supply List:
  
Cardstock - Stampin' Up! (Marina Mist, Whisper White, Crumb Cake)
Patterned Paper - My Mind's Eye (Lost and Found 2)
