In Color Thanks for Fab Friday

 I'm so happy that it's time for another challenge at Fab Friday! 

 I really enjoyed making my card with the Simon Says Stamp Big Scripty Greetings and Artful Flowers sets for today's challenge.

  I am absolutely loving the new In Colors from Stampin' Up! that we are to incorporate into our designs. I stamped the leaves in Cucumber Crush directly onto Tip Top Taupe card stock. It makes a fabulous neutral!  

The panel is layered onto white craft foam to add dimension. I'm finding that detail makes a big difference to the overall appearance of my card, plus, it holds up much better in the mail.

 

Watermelon Wonder, Mint Macaron and Delightful Dijon are all represented in my card stock elements. 

I started out thinking I'd only use my favorites in the card but ended up using them all.

I know I will be WILD about using the wonderful zingy red of Watermelon Wonder with Cucumber Crush for Christmas cards. They look fabulous together! Did you guess I like them best?

 I embossed the sentiment and the butterfly in white. The white dots were added with a gel pen. I'm adding this card to the MFT Summer School Challenge "Balance: Quiet Space /White Space."

Thanks for taking a look and please join us in the challenge fun this week!
