    1. So glad you liked it! It was fun working with just the 3 colors and trying to come up with something simple to make it stabd out from the rest! I enjoy sharing my cards and learning from others what does and does not work. Have a blessed day!

    1. Thank you Sandie. I was so afraid it might not work, just maybe "too" much, but I had to take the risk. I am fairly new to all of this, with having just begun card making a year ago, and now this month February getting my feet wet, so to speak, with the card challeges, I am pushing the envelope. No pun intended. I am glad you liked it and look forward to your other challenges.
