CC553 - Barbara is our hostess and she chose elegant eggplant, calypso coral, old olive and Bermuda bay. Dessert is to use pearls or rhinestones.
HYCCT1511 - Kim wants us to create a card that features a mode of transportation. ANY transportation...cars, bicycles, trains....
Since I knew I would be using the CC553 challenge colors, I looked for my layout first. I am using the October week 3 Viva la Verve sketch. Then I looked for my designer paper. I chose this old olive striped paper from the Stampin'-Up "etcetera collection".
My bicycle image is a die from Cheery Lynn Designs cut in bermuda bay. My flags are dies from Verve and I cut in calypso coral.. I added some Stampin'-up candy dots in elegant eggplant and also stamped my sentiment in elegant eggplant. The sentiment is from the Waltzingmouse set "half pint heroines".
Completed my card by adding some die cut hearts to the wheels.
Hope you can play along with us this week. Why not use the challenge colors and create a card for one of the HYCCT challenges.

Fantastic sentiment for the HYCCT challenge. Love the colours too! That jaunty striped paper and the coral flags really add to the 'pick me up' theme. Lovely card!
