Raspberry Suite Color Challenge #13

So today I want to share the card I created for Dawn McVey's Raspberry Suite Color Challenge #13. Dawn is a very talented lady and has an eye for amazing color combos!!! So this weeks challenge is another stunner, such a bright and cheery combo!At first her challenges sometimes throw me for a loop, but once I start playing around and start putting something together, I end up having so much fun! So here is what I came up with...
The polka dots are another one of my new sets from Papertrey Ink, Polka Dot Basics II. They were inked in red and stamped onto berry cardstock. Here is a close up of the ribbon and button detail...
This is such a fun and simple layout. I couldn't just stop at one card, so I went ahead and made two more! Card #2...

Card #3...

This was a good way to increase the number of cards in my stash. Anyways... I hope you enjoyed my cards and thanks to Dawn for another fabulous Color Challenge!


Have a wonderful rest of the day!
