Color Throwdown Challenge #69

This is the color challenge for this weeks Color Throwdown--come on over and play along
It is time to throw down some color........this week the call was for Dark Red, Olive, Vanilla, and Choc. Chip. Super easy colors for me to work with--love them together!! I needed a birthday card for this weekend so I created this one with my good friend in mind.

Right now I am in the mode of using up some of the great DP's that I have laying around--scraps and stuff! I pulled out what was left of my Pina Colada Simply Scrappin set and created this collage of flowers. The background DP is from that set also but it was white and since I needed vanilla I sponged over it with Close to Cocoa and then finished off the edges in Choc. Chip. The only stamping on this card is the sentiment and it is from Verve stamps. The ribbon, corduroy buttons brads, and papers are from Stampin Up!

Thanks for stopping by and having a look--happy stamping!!
