Here is my card for today's color challenge to use any of the 'going out' in colors - I used Wild Wasabi and Purely Pomegranate.
and also for the Double Dare weekly challenge I do with some SCS friends - Anne (jdmommy) was hostess this week and her instructions were to make a card thinking of the upcoming Olympics in China - it could be sports related or Asian themed.
My card is Sushi - so I went with Asian theme.
I loved the double entendre here with the life without wasabi idea in the sentiment!
I used my new leafy branch Cuttlebug folder on this, colored the sushi with inks and my aquapainter and added stickles for a little shimmer.
The tag was cut with the Spellbinder double ended tag die and the squares were cut with my nestabilities.
This was a fun challenge Anne! made us think this week!!

I just love this, Julia! What a wonderful stamp and sentiment! So perfect for an Asian theme! Great colors, especially the WASABI...what a hoot! Love the cb bg, the coloring of the sushi (YUCK!..not my thing.), the ribbon, the tag, the brads...I guess that covers it!! Great job, girlfriend!!!!!!!
