Colour Challenge

I had to do a little approximation with this card as I didn't have the Stampin' Up colours exactly. I matched the shades from my catalogue with the colours of inks and papers I have in my stash and I think that they are pretty close.
The colours in question are Pear Pizzazz, Cajun Craze and Early Espresso.
The challenge is from Colour Throwdown.
For this card I used Darkroom Door stamps with a Hero Arts sentiment.
It is heavily distressed and now I have rather ink-stained fingers which won't look too good for my dinner party tonight unless I get scrubbing!

  8. inky fingers and hors d'oeuvres don't exactly match well Chrissie - but these colours certainly do - well done and good luck with the colour challenge.

  11. love the vintage feel to this one. Did your hands scrub up well then or did your guests think you'd been digging up potatoes?
