I ordered my second Avery Elle set (To the Point) the other day. It arrived at my house the next day. Talk about fast shipping. I decided to play around with some color challenges.
This week's ColourQ color scheme screamed Halloween, but I didn't feel like making any Halloween cards. I don't know why. So I decided to see if I could use the colors in a different way. I only have two Avery Elle sets, but they work so perfectly well together. This card uses Framed Fonts and To the Point.

Once I got going, I had some more ideas about how to play with these two
sets. I used this week's Color Throwdown #213 to make two more cards. For the first card, I used a Spellbinders circle die to cut a space for the sentiment, and raised the front panel just a bit with dimensionals.

This next card is basically a vertical orientation of my first card.

| Congratulations |
Supplies Used:
Stamps: Avery Elle Framed Fonts and To the Point
Paper: PTI White
Ink for Birthday: Memento Black, Winter Wisteria, Summer Sunrise, Orange Zest
Ink for Thank You and Congratulations: Memento Tuxedo Black, Hibiscus Burst, Limeade Ice, Orange Zest
