Paula from More Than Favors has a Wacky Wednesday Challenge every week. She posts the theme and she creates something to inspire us to get creative. :) Well this weeks challenge was to use the colors turquoise, red and white. Kind of a strange combination of colors in my opinion and I like Paula would never have combined these colors. She got inspired from a post she seen on ApartmentTherapy.com. To be honest I actually really liked these colors together once I seen the inspiration as well as all the other projects my fellow scrappers came up with.

Here is my take on the whole color scheme:
Here's the recipe....

Base: Red Recollections card stock
Cut: Celebrate With Flourish (my newest cart and I LOVE it) using Recollections card stock as well.
Background: Silver cardboard from a HUGE make-up kit my husband bought my daughter, embossed via the CuttleBug.
Sentiment: Scrappy Mom's Stamps
Ribbon: Is from my friend Ann @ YoursTruLee. I can't say that I know for sure but I'm guessing PTI (Paper Trey Ink). It's the thickest ribbon I've ever felt. VERY nice.

I like how it turned out. Definitely different for me but hey, sometimes it's good to step outside of your comfort zone. Try it, you might like it. :)

Keep Kreating,
Erin

Erin, You out did yourself! This card is pretty amazing! and yes, the ribbon is from Papertreyink.com...gotta love that place! :) It seriously is my favorite and 99.9% of my cards bases are made with their paper because the quality is amazing and they are pretty affordable :)
Thanks for the shout out my friend!
