Suede Mambo


The SCS Color Challengewas to use 2 of the SU in colors: Soft Suede & Melon Mambo. I had to think about this for awhile, but finally came up with this fairly simple design. Not sure I'm happy with it, but it's too late to start over. Tuesday is a full day with a hair appointment then going to work...it's take this card or leave it! This also qualifies for Speedy's Friends Challenge #2 to use a corner punch.
STAMPS: Thoughts & Prayers (SU), Bountiful Backgrounds (Verve)
PAPER: Soft Suede, Melon Mambo, Natural ivory
INK: Soft Suede, Melon Mambo
ACCESSORIES: Fleur de lis border punch (EK Success), Fleur de lis punch, Brads, Distressing tool, Sponge, Grosgrain ribbon, Corner punch (? name)
