It’s a new challenge at Create with Connie & Mary.  This weeks challenge CCMC210 is going to last for two weeks.  Some of the design team will be at the Stampin’ Up! Convention next week – so you have two weeks to play along.  And this week is a color challenge. I came up with this fun card with a brand new stamp set – the set is called Moving Forward – and it is the cute new Ronald McDonald House stamp set.  You can find it in the very back of the catalog.

I decided that I wanted to separate the images and the words so I could use them by themselves.  But since I got this set as a clear mount I figured out it was super easy to keep them separated and use them together – I just cut between the image and the words and when I want to use them together I can just mount them on the clear block together – because I cut them apart – they will fit perfectly back together when I put them on the block to stamp.

Oh before I forget here are the colors we are using – in case you didn’t already figure it out –

This card is a 4-1/4″ x 4-1/4″ So Saffron card base.  Then I added a Pool Party panel on the front that was punched with the scallop border punch and then I pierced it.  The front is Old Olive with the Whisper White and the stamped image – stamp in Old Olive, add Cherry Cobbler accents and color the sail So Saffron.  I used the little swirly image in Pool Party to randomly stamp around the bottom of the boat for waves.  And I sponged all the way around the white square.

Here is a close up of the Baker’s Twine – that has a tag and a heart button tied to the card front.

And the inside –

I’d love to see what you create with these colors.  Make something and then visit Create with Connie & Mary and submit your entry.  Each challenge is open for a week.  And then a new challenge will be issued.  Except this one will be TWO WEEKS long.

Here are a few more details about my card.
