Good Saturday Morning Peeps!
It is time for another new challenge on the OCC Blog. I am the hostess again this week and I have a fun color challenge, I call it "Neutrals with a POP".
Basic Gray, Basic Black and the POP is some pretty Real Red, of course you can add in some white or vanilla.
I just love this color combo, I started with a base of Basic Black and then I followed that with some basic gray that I embossed with the Stripes EF.
The stamp set I used is the new "Love & Sympathy" from Stampin' Up. Such a pretty set. I used my markers in real red and old olive to color the flower. I stamped onto some whisper white card stock. I stamped the sentiment with black. I matted the main image with basic black. I then used some real red that I embossed with the square lattice EF.
I added some real red satin ribbon and three small silver pearls.
Be sure to check the Our Creative Corner Blog to see what the rest of the design team came up with for this fun challenge. I hope you can find some time to play along and if you do don't forget to link it up over on the Our Creative Corner Blog so we can all see it!
Thanks for stopping by today and HAPPY STAMPING!!!!

So pretty and simple. Like this stamp set a lot. Like the design--which I would have a problem with (this is when I realize I really sometimes need to let go of squaring everything up). Just a very eye-catching design. Nina

Your card is absolutely wonderful, Vicki! Red is my favorite color and I just love that red ribbon and the panel behind the main element. This was such a fabulous challenge. I really, really love this color combo. It's not something I ever used before and I thank you for introducing me to it.
