ColourQ 120 - Thank You!

Good Morning!

Just a quick card to share today! I am working on a variety pack of cards that I am going to contribute to a fundraiser.

My card is fairly simple and uses colors from the latest Colourq challenge. I got as close to two of the colors as possible and had two. (Yay I love it when I have a match) I used stamps from Inkadinkado called  Flowers to create a patterned panel. On some of the images I did the stamping off technique, and I really like the muted color image it produces.  I added a sentiment die cut from PTI. Next I stamped the coordinating border and sentiment in Stampin' UP! Craft White ink and embossed with white embossing powder and heat set.
I added some patterned paper I had in my stash and finished off with Rich Razzleberry Polka dot grosgrain ribbon. 

Just a quick share: This card made Top 3 at Simply Stampin'! You can see the original post here.

Enjoy your weekend!
~Tammy~
