raspberry suite color challenge

Good morning. Well, after last nights card (or should I say sewing machine lesson), I decided to tackle another card. Last night's card was just not my normal. Dawn posted a new color challenge at the perfect time:
Can I just say I love that plate rack? I would love to have that. I also took this oppurtunity to try some of Dawn's flowers. I really like how they turned out.


Also, so for the images. I had to use the little point and click for these.
On the naturals ivory I stamp damask designs with versa mark. It's hard to see in the picture, but it certainly gives it a finished look in person. Stamps: Damask Designs
Paper: Always Artichoke (I didn't have new leaf), naturals ivory, black
Ink: Versa Mark, Black Stazon
Button: PTI True Black
Ribbon: PTI True Black Satin

Last reminder, I'll pick the winner of my giveaway tonight! See it here.

Hey, very pretty card! I like how these handmade flowers look like.

Great job on the challenge and the flowers! I was trying to figure out what Stampin up color to use for this challenge, and the always artichoke looks great. (I had been thinking old olive, but I will rethink it now).

Beautiful! I'll bet that damask looks great on the ivory. I definitely need to try those flowers out one of these days... they look fantastic on your card!

This is soooooo lovely! I love THAT flower! Great job with your color and composition! I love hearing and seeing all the different interpretations of the colors... See, I was thinking "Mellow Moss" based on the computer color of Dawn's graphic, but I've seen green of much of the spectrum, just visiting folks! You NEVER know! That's what makes a great challenge, I suppose!
