Embrace Everything

Color Challenge #147

Happy New Year to everyone !!!
Can you believe it ? It is 2008- a brand new year and what a way to start with this in mind-Embrace Everything!!! Embrace what is meaningful to you, about everything that is dear to you...
Here is a card I did for today's Color Challenge-Taken with Teal, Certainly Celery and Real Red. I am not a big fan of Taken with Teal so I worked with it the best I can, but love, love Real Red and Certainly Celery together. I let you guys decide how well I did with this color combo. I used a Non SU Punch (shhh)
to make the circle on white paper. I also made a circle on the Taken with Teal paper and glued the white paper inside it. I stamped the image in the Taken with Teal using Versamark. I used SU DSP for the BG panels. The flowers were colored in Real red using Aqua Painter, added the circle stamp for spotlighting and Stickles were added as a finishing touch.
