I am in a mood today to use the soon-to-be-retired SU colors. This card features Bordering Blue, which looks very gray -- and that's okay by me, I like grays. But....when I tried to match up a companion color for this card, I had a really hard time. I didn't want to overpower the blue, but I didn't want to use a bright color either. I needed a soft tone. Sahara Sand fit the bill for this Anniversary card, which I wanted to keep muted and understated.

Gorgeous, Colleen! You really nailed "muted and understated", plus SOPHISTICATED, with this beauty. So very nicely done
