Life. ~ FTL 76 & CTD 77





I combined two of my favorite challenges for this card...not sure how successfully, but anyway...I had fun pairing up the Color Throwdown #77 using Elegant Eggplant, Baja Breeze & Certainly Celery and the Fall-to Layout #76 from Clean & Simple.



I dug through my file of retired paper and thankfully found several sheets/scraps of Baja Breeze scraps...woohoo...what a versatile color that is! Since I couldn't decide on ONE pattern to use, I used several...:) I love Elegant Eggplant, too, but just added a couple of touches. I just love the ocean/sea feeling of these colors together...so calming.





Stamps: Embrace Life (sentiment)
Paper: Certainly Celery, Baja Breeze CS, variety of retired DSP
Ink: Elegant Eggplant
Other: Sherbet Designer Buttons, Linen Thread, Trio Flower & Scallop Square Punches, Soft Subtles Brads, Mat Pack & Piercer, Certainly Celery 5/8" Grosgrain
