Here's the color challenge I used from
Dynamic Duos #7 - Melon Mambo & Basic Black with a dessert option of ribbon...
This is the sketch I used from
OWH Stars & Stamps sketch challenge #126...
After combining both of the above challenges, I came up with this card. The ribbon was recycled from another project, and I just barely had enough to use, so the ends aren't tucked behind the black cardstock. I hope they won't unravel because I tried to stick them down real tight! The silhouette image was a free digi from
Lily's Night Garden, and I added a SNSS sentiment along with some black pearls and pink gemstones from
Pizzazz Aplenty. Quick, simple, and I think these colors have a real dramatic look together!
That's it for me today - I hope you have a great Sunday!

This is a fantastic image, Carol! And the ribbon is perfect!
Bold and striking, colors. Love it. Thanks for stopping by my blog and leaving the love. Hugs
I love the combination of challenges and the beautiful silhouette image. Thanks for joining in with the challenge at Dynamic Duos.
That is such a stunning silhouette! And the colors are beautiful with it. I think your ribbon looks great, but if you worry about that as much as I was, you might want to look into getting an imaginisce.
It's not very expensive (I think I paid between $15-19), it uses batteries, and cuts and seals the ribbon ends in just a couple seconds. You can cut them straight or in diagonals and I love it. (It looks really cheap, but it sure does work.)
Great job with the sketch, and that fabulous color combo.
Strjkingly pretty card, Carol!! I can see a hero sending this home to his special someone, or a parent sending it to their teen or college-aged daughter--who will love it!
Stunning card. I love the colors and the pretty ribbon too.
What a great silhouette image! I love how you did your ribbon too! Perfect for this color combo! Thanks for joining us at Dynamic Duos this week! :)

Unique and vrey pretty image. Love your card and it will be very special for someone to receive.
How wonderfully elegant! I love how you have used a simple ribbon treatment which adds so much interest but the full focus is still on that lovely image! So glad to see you at Dynamic Duos!
Carol, this is wonderful I need to case it for my girls and their friends.
