What WAS I thinking???? I saw this absolutely STUNNING card by Roxie yesterday and thought I would try to duplicate her efforts . . . did NOT work out for me like it did for HER:
I think my BIGGEST problem with this is the colors. Today's challenge - LSC229 - was to use either your wedding colors or your high school colors. Since my high school's colors were royal blue and yellow gold I KNEW I was going to have to use my wedding colors (black and kind of a rose red/pink color). And since I had NO clue what I was doing with this . . . well, it didn't turn out quite how I had planned. Guess I am going to have to try again! (And she said she did hers in, like, 20 minutes!! WhatEVER!! Not me, that's for sure!)

YOur wedding colors were beautiful, and I think this card is too!! I have found that casing Roxie is not always a good idea.........she can do things I CAN'T!! You, however, did a great job!!!

Your card stands alone as a beauty on its own. I love your varying shades of red and the over all design is gorgeous. You sound like you're disappointed in this card but I think it's wonderful.
