A short post today with a card for two challenges: ColourQ (CQC42) and City Crafters (CCCB14). The lovely gals at City Crafters were so kind to me earlier this week and voted the card I entered in their last challenge into the "Artist Spotlight"! What made it even more exciting to me is that it was the first time I had ever entered their challenge! This week the City Crafters challenge is a sketch and worked perfectly for my card for ColourQ. Yet another absolutely YUMMY color combo from Arielle! 
For the card I got out my Ranger Distress inks (Spiced Marmalade, Scattered Straw & Barn Door) and did some sponging/distressing. The floral image is from the cool SU! set Fifth Avenue Floral... another set I don't use enough. The background paper is October Afternoon's Thrift Shop and the rhinestones are Kaiser Craft. The sentiment is from Waltzingmouse Stamps Asian Garden Additions set.
Supplies: Cardstock: PaperTrey Ink - white; Stampin Up! Choc. Chip, Real Red; PP: October Afternoon Thrift Shop; Stamps: SU! Fifth Avenue Floral; WMS Asian Garden Additions; Ranger Distress Inks: Spiced Marmalade, Barn Door & Scattered Straw; Kaiser Craft rhinestones. Ink: SU! Choc. Chip
