My first Challenge Card


This is for the Kristina Werner Color Challenge. The colors are Very Vanilla (NOT WHISPER WHITE), Soft Sky, Pumpkin Pie and Certainly Celery. These colors are basically the same tone except for the Pumpkin Pie so I had a hard time making something that had enough contrast for my liking. I'm not big on challenges because my time is limited (I want to see what everyone else is doing for the challenge and that just takes way too much time) so I wasn't sure if the black dot for the bird's eye was "legal" it felt wrong when I did it. But it needed it and I like the way it turn out (for the most part).

The patterned papers are all from Stampin' Up! and are either retired or going on the retired list. The stamp set is Always.

Enjoy Kristina. This one's for you.
