Hi Stampers, We have another fun hop for you today using a color challenge this week. The colors are Pool Party, Berry Burst and Lemon Lime Twist. What an unusual combination that to my surprise created a really pretty card. I love to see colors that I would not normally use together turn out beautifully. I guess that is why they call it a challenge! Enjoy!
Here is the color challenge:
