This is for SC 131, as well as Color Challenge #2 :-)
I am working my way through the entire color challenge list, combining with other challenges.
I like how this turned out...except I wanted the plaid panel to be larger. I have a hard time getting BG stamps to go on evenly, so a sizable portion was faded. I just compensated with a larger red panel. I also used the ladybugs in red to border the inside top and bottom

I use the same technique on bg stamps as lakind and EmGee458 and have great success with them. I use bg stamps a lot now and I used to avoid them at all costs until I learned how to do this. Your card is really cute! I love your combo of stamps and the colors!

Nice color combo. I use BG's that don't ink evenly because it adds interest. You should try it. (Like the Bohemian DP).
Great Card!

you've come a long way baby! haha...but Do love ladybugs...what a clever idea to make them scurring across the card. I found a ladybug today actually...and I think her wing was damaged. It was hanging out funny...so sad.
