I have to admit that this week’s Dynamic Duos color combo of orange and black had me stumped for a while. I didn’t want to make a Halloween card, and I struggled with a few different ideas in my head that just didn’t seem like they would work. Finally I decided to see if I could tweak one of my previous cards to work with these colors, and I settled on this one from January 2011. I added a couple panels to the design, stretched it to a rectangle, and reversed the positions of the flowers and the flourishes. The sentiment stamp that I chose lets this card fit into this week’s OWH Midweek Throwdown challenge.
Supplies:
Stamps: Sage Advice, Priceless (Stampin’ Up)
Cardstock: Pumpkin Pie, Basic Black, Very Vanilla (SU)
Ink: Pumpkin Pie (SU); Onyx Black (VersaFine)
Other: black brads (SU); flowers (Prima Marketing); petite oval and petite scalloped oval Nestabilities dies (Spellbinders)

Lovely card and the sentiment is just perfect. I have struggled with this Dynamic duos challenge. I haven’t even got something done yet.
This is a fabulous card, I love the clean style!
Thanks for playing in our Operation Write Home Midweek Throwdown challenge!
I love your colors!!! The sentiment is perfect. I never think to use song lyrics . Will be giving it a try.
I think your non-Halloween card turned out beautifully! I love the delicate flourish behind the sentiment and the font of the sentiment is very pretty! Thanks for joining us at Dynamic Duos!
Great card…I hope you’ll link up at 52 Card Pickup this week!
