Freshly Made Sketches, CR84FN and The Play Date Cafe

 







Its not often I combine more than 2 challenges together but this week 2 colour challenges are the same so I can go into both woop woop. I tried my hand at shabby chic again today and I am quite pleased with the result even if I am hyperventilating with the shabby.  I used the Sketch over at the Freshly Made Sketch Challenge, and the colour combos at both the Play Date Cafe and CR84FN Challenge.

for this Card I used the following products from Stampin Up

Card - Pool Party, Island Indigo, Whisper White
Ink - Versa Mark, Early espresso, Sahara Sand, Crumb Cake
Stamp - En Francais, Artistic Etchings, French Foliage
DS paper - Sweet Shop and some very old papers
