WOW OH WOW OH WOW!!! DID I EVER struggle with these colors!! When I say this card was Take 5, I kid NOT!!! I circular filed several attempts...and finally decided I was really gonna have to choose either the purple or the melon mambo and then downplay the other color because when I put the colors together strong, I just could NOT come up with ANYTHING I liked enough to post!! Vicki - you REALLLY challenged me this time!!! WOWEE ZOWEE......I was exHAUSTED!!! So here is what I finally came up with and I do like it alot, but I'm not sure if I loved the card, or I loved the fact that I finally MADE ONE!!!!! Happy Tuesday everyone!

You may have struggled, Karen, but it was worth the effort (on my end)! This is so elegant. I love the layout and your beautiful stamping and coloring. Fantastic!!!

WOW! Karen! This is absolutely gorgeous!
I looked at the colors and I'm thinking how on earth will this work? Then I see your card, and I am just blown away! I always knew I liked your creative style, but this one, well, it just blows me away!

Your end result is beautiful Karen!! You really pulled it off nicely. I agree this one is definitely a challenge. Your flowers are so pretty, and I love how you did the scalloped circle in the stripes to match your bg paper.
