Dynamic Duos #1 {Just for You}


The BIG DAY is here! May the 5th and the DYNAMIC DUOS challenge blog is launched!!! We are starting off our challenge with a wonderful combo chosen by FACEBOOK friend Sharla!  She suggested Aqua and Lime, so I chose Lucky Limeade and Pool Party to be our inaugural colours!!!  I decided to tone down the colours with some Crumb Cake/Kraft paper.  I wanted to show that you are welcome to combine the two colours with neutrals. Not much stamping on this card!


{Supplies Used}
Stamps: Retired Hostess set from Stampin' Up
Inks: Lucky Limeade
Papers: Lucky Limeade DSP, Crumb Cake Cardstock, Whisper White, Pool Party DSP and CS
Extras: MS Doily, Butterfly Die from SU!, Oval Nestabilities, Old Olive Grosgrain Ribbon, Pearls, Swiss Dots Embossing Folder

I hope you will join us in our inaugural challenge over at Dynamic Duos!  Be sure to check out the wonderful and varied samples from the design team!
