I have missed two weeks because I earned the Alaska cruise with Stampin'Up! and had to forfeit the challenge - it was a tough choice......not. If you ever have a chance to go on a Stampin'Up Trip - take it - boy oh boy do they spoil us!!! So many new toys and Alaska was the bomb!!! Okay- about this challenge...I made this card for my coworker to give her daughter who was graduating highschool. She said she was a Kate Spade fan, so I tried to give it that feel. I positively love this stamp set and this paper. LOVE LOVE LOVE. I hope you like these rich jewel tones I chose. Hey, it's not pink so be thankful for the break. Have fun making cards this week and don't forget your touch of GOLD!! Happy Tuesday everyone!

I totally love these colors Karen, but I managed to make pink out of them anyway LOL! Love your stunning card, the flowers are fabulous against the graphic black and white stripes. Another true beauty!
And congrats on achieving the Alaska cruise!! So glad you had a wonderful time!

Karen - this card is AMAZING! Very pretty and well executed. Those stripes, roses and the bit of gold - definitely Kate Spade in feel. I am sure the recipient loved it! And congratulations on the Alaska Cruise!

Karen, I'm so glad you were able to go on the Alaska cruise! Sounds like you had a great time! Your card is just beautiful! I especially love the die-cut "amazing." That script is so pretty. Love all the bright flowers, too!

Never wanted to go on a cruise, but would be very tempting if it was for Stampin Up! Glad you had a good time!
Your flowers are colored beautifully! Love the colors you chose!
Gorgeous card!
