Thanks for the great combo! I didn't have Cool Carribean, Old Olive or Cranberry Crisp, so I used Bashful and Baroque and skipped the optional Olive. Here is my card:

I started cleaning up my mess and decided to make one more card with the rest of the paper I had been using. Turns out I liked this one best. You really can find joy in little scraps of paper!

This was a fun color combo. It took me awhile to decide what type of sets to use. Wasn't sure I could pull off Mustard flowers! I really like how it came out!

I thought these colors were very unusual but my first thought was Banana Republic so out came the tropical stamps...

Thanks for looking!

Emily, thanks for the great challenge. I had a fun time putting this together! I live in MA and its still cold most days, I could use a little "Aloha" in my life right now, so I pulled out one of my favorite, but lately little used sets, Do the Hula.

Thanks for looking:

This is just what I needed today...been kind of down and thought a little creativity could help me up. And it did! I love this combo and never would have thought of it! I made two little boy birthday cards, and even managed to make my first successful card with my clowning around set! Thanks Emily. I needed this!

Here's my second card for the challenge. These colors are great for a guy card. I don't have Carribean or Old Olive, so I used Buckaroo and Mellow Moss this time. This card is pretty silly, but I have a guy friend who will like it! TFL.

Hmm, realized too late that I forgot to include CCaribbean! LOL! I added the sentiment, up top, but I guess I should try again, huh? *giggle*

Oh well, here's what I have for now:

Gallery at Splitcoaststampers

I should say, I started out by trying this week's technique, Emerging Colour Forums at Splitcoaststampers and I DID use CCaribbean on that one, but it didn't turn out so good...

Anyway, TFL!
