Compose a Card #4

Becky, thank you. This was much easier. :) Becky Oehlers has really amazing Compose a Card challenges. And they are challenges, but that's what makes it fun. Here is this week's:


I really like the combination of green, black and white. I do have a '70's flashback aversion to the particular shade of avocado, but it does look pretty in this scenario. Just not next to orange and yellow in wallpaper or kitchen appliances, and I think we're fine. Anywho...This is my take on it:
Paper: PTI True Black, White, Ripe Avocado
Ink: Versafine Onyx, SU Old Olive (and marker)
Stamps: PTI Sweet Love, Simple Little Things
Other: Offray organdy and narrow satin ribbon, PTI Black satin, Avocado button, oval scallop punch

    Cheryl, I love your card! Great design--so clean & simple and I like how you flipped it on end. This is a set I don't have and haven't looked at in ages. Love all the swirly designs. Thanks for reminding me that there are many great sets we might be forgetting!

    So different from the other's I have seen in this challenge so far Cheryl. LOVE it. (Clever of you to use the love oval as your negative!)
