Love This Colour Combo
This patterned curtain caught my eye right away. I just love black and white cards, but as as I looked at the picture in more detail, I loved the cream, kraft and saffron colours in the room as well.
I started with a great piece of DP from my Costco pack and went from there. I VersaMarked the closest thing I had to a damask image on the saffron (it's one of the images in Verve's Accent Notes set) and added a little flourish with a half pearl to help fill out the sentiment panel a bit. Black sheer ribbon, some cream half pearls and my card was done :) I just love this colour combination and will definitely use it again! Three down and only one to go - yeah :)
Have a fabulous day and I'll be back soon with my last Verve challenge card. First, to the pool we must go LOL!

Stamps: (Verve) Accent Notes, Psalm 3:3
