PAL's Paper Arts Color Challenge 163

Welcome!  Today is another color challenge for the PPA, we now have two teams, so 4 challenges a month, 2 color and 2 sketch.  Todays colors are Cherry Cobbler, Midnight Muse and Very Vanilla.

Red and blue are two favorites of mine, so I was happy, .  

Pretty simple actually, I used Very Vanilla as my base card, then layered CC over the top after embossing it using the Modern Mosic emb folder.
I put on my VV little banner strip. TIP: to make the banner end, just find the center, snip up a ways, then snip on each side up to the end of the center snip.

I used my Ovals Collection framelits and choose a size that fitted under the Apothecary accents Framelit. 
Stamped and cut my saying using Layered Labels stamp set, and one of the dies from the apothecary accents framelits.

I then punched out a 1 1/4" scalloped round, punched out the Boho Blossoms twice, once in each color, then layered, punched two holes and put my twine through and tied a knot.

I hope you got some inspiration from my post today, and Thanks for stopping by.

Mojo Monday 295 SU birthday card

Here we are, another Mojo Monday. I anxiously look forward to getting up on Monday mornings now, Mojo monday is partly responsible for that, but being retired doesn't hurt either.

As much as possible I'm using my DSP pads, these are retiring and new ones will be out in a few days. I have loved these, and I sure hate to see them go, but some of the colors have changed and we have some new patterns in the new pads. Meanwhile, I have found them to be an extremely cost effective addition to cards and I love them.
I used the Make a wish set for the birthday cake, I love this cake, it came out in the Spring Catalog and is staying in the new one.

The embossing folder is in the new catalog so a sneak peek for you, it's an interesting folder, you get a different but equally neat look no matter which side of the paper you use after embossing.

On with the basics.

Cherry Cobbler

This card is going to my grand daughter in law, her birthday is just a few days away. Gotta say tho, scares the heck out of me that at anytime I could be great-grandma! Shudder.

I have a question for you.  I'd really like to know what your favorite color combos are, seems like sometimes it's hard to decide. I have my favorite colors, but It's nice to other color combos for other people and it can be difficult.
Also, after June 3rd, look here for some great buys on retired DSP and Stamp sets.
