Ay! What a color combination....I saw what Karen and the others did with it, but I sat there in a daze....shaking my head and completely clueless as to how to combine all of those colors. I went to bed thinking something would come to me in the morning. I got up, got my coffee, and still...nothing. I finally decided I would try to minimize the two obvious offenders (lol) and play up the Baja and Limeade. I stamped and masked a frame, then over stamped with paisley. I then added my little leaves and flowers.Anyway, I wouldn't say this was my shining hour, but it is ok. So, I say, "Thank You" to Karen and the color challenge team! This really was a challenge to me. Your girls are the best. I can't wait to see what everyone else came up with!
