Retro Wedding

I have been waiting on a new challenge blog to begin...Fab Friday! Mindy Backes from Bada-Bing Creations is the challenge coordinator, and she has put together a superstar Design Team .  Their work is always fun and fresh and I have been an admirer for quite some time. I am so excited to participate in this challenge............. FROM the BEGINNING! ;)
This week's challenge is a sketch challenge, FabFriday01. I did something this week I have never done before....I used the colors in the sketch sample for my card as well. Take a peek...
I know that yellow and gray together is very trendy right now. I love them together but I had never made a card with that color scheme before. The sketch sample looked perfect to me so I CASEd the entire sketch! Stampin' Up! So Saffron and Basic Gray and the perfect colors. I loved the Mixed Bunched flowers stamped. I used the Vintage Wallpaper Impressions folder as well as the new Impressions folder, Lacy Brocade. When I finished, I was happy with the "retro-feel" that this card has.
Thanks again for stopping by!!
