... and, regretfully, I think I failed miserably. Maybe I wasn't "feeling" the colors or the sketch or maybe my mojo just wasn't flowing today but his card is NOT one of my better ones.
I'm sure this has NOTHING to do with the nice folks over at The Color Dare or the lovely ladies at Pals Paper Arts - it is completely MY fault that this card doesn't do either one justice:
So - take a deep breath and prepare yourself...
Recipe - Paper: Creamy Caramel, Ruby Red, Whisper White, Bermuda Bay Ink: Ruby Red, Bermuda Bay Accessories: Marvy Uchida corner punch, paper piercer, white taffeta ribbon, button, twine, Cuttlebug embossing folders, sponge dauber, Martha Stewart border punch, slot punch, 1-3/4" circle punch, brads
That's all I'm going to say about this card. Let's all hope the next one is MUCH better than this... ;) Do I dare try again tonight???
*E.T.A. In my despondence, I forgot to *thank* the team at the Color Dare for recognizing my submission last week as an honorable mention - I'm pretty excited about it! If you would like to see which one it was, click here.
