Freshly Made Sketches #586, Color Hues second helpings

 I can't resist a fun Sketch and Jacquie has just that over at Freshly Made Sketches!

My Spellbinders' embossing club folder had just been delivered so why not use it?  While I'm at it, why not make it in the fun colors at Color Hues #64?  They never get upset with second helpings - wink.



See those embossed candles?  imagine they have been 'extinguished' by 
the winds of my patterned paper! Ha!
A pair of balloons and a fun sentiment from Honey Bee's Big Time Kindness completes my card.


Thanks so much for breezing by!

Great minds DO think alike...I'm working on my FMS card next! Again, the colors are perfect for this card. Aren't we lucky we get to create during the day??

Of course second helpings are welcome, especially with such a fun and clever card! A great way to use the sketch with the challenge colors. Thanks so much for sharing another fab card at Color Hues Michele!

I don't know what I like more, the bright orange balloons or those nifty embossed candles? Oh heck, I like it all!!

Leslie Miller said...

Of course you had to do this color challenge again, and with a clever interpretation of the sketch to boot! What a fun card! My folder just arrived as well and I immediately had an idea for it so got to work while the previous two folders are still sitting, sheesh.

Oh dear, I might have added a few items to my wish list after viewing this pretty card. The color palette gives it a nice modern touch, Michele! Thanks for playing along with us at FMS this week.

I am totally in love with this birthday card! Those balloons are so eye-catching and then those candles are super cool too. Glad you came back for a second helping at Color Hues. Hugs!

So many wonderful details to catch the eye, Michele. Fabulous card!

The same colours but a totally different feel to your first card. Love the bold strip of embossed candles, the balloons and the fab, bold orange sentiment. Thanks again for being inspired by my colours at Color Hues. :)

Well now Michele, you have combined this sketch with the color challenge beautifully! I love your take on sketches, you are always so creative with them but one can definitely see the sketch in your card. Loving the orange and slate grey color combo. This made for one super fun birthday card! Can't go wrong with balloons or candles and both is perfect! So fun!!! Hugs, Brenda
