Totally Hues: Challenge #3

Super excited to be on time, this time, for Heather P's challenge! This weeks colors are gorgeous! I have loved her combos because she puts the colors together for me! I have a hard time with that sometimes and I love to "borrow" what she puts together beautifully!

So here is my card....

This is a new set I picked up this weekend by American Crafts, thanks to my friend Amy! We went to Michael's and she pointed it out! To top it off it was on clearance! Love that!!  The little orange squares in the centers are a little bit of Copic coloring to add in that orange I am so bad with!  I was happy with how this came out though!  Orange usually hates me!  hehe!

    Nice job. I have that AC set too. It's incredibly versatile! And way to rock the orange.

    Lookie there! You used that $5 set! (I had soo much fun on Saturday night but where did the time go? Seriously.) Those medallions look fantastic stamped with just the hint of orange in there!
