Football or Flowers?

This one was interesting for me- three colours which individually I have no problem with, but together?  Well, I could only think of football team strips. But, and this is what always amazes me about colour challenges, when you take someone else's colour choice and have a play you can end up with something that you absolutely love, and that's what happened to me.  So, thank you Kylie for making me do this!
The challenge is, of course, from CAS Colours and Sketches and here are the three colours - they are named for Stampin' Up shades but you can use anything in your stash which is the same.

I chose to use Kraft as my card base and stamp in red onto light blue cardstck, but of course there are lots of variations - just don't use any other colours, except black or white.


I used just one stamp set- Best Of Flowers, love, love, love this set especially the daisy stamp (I know, you've seen it here before) but the other two were previously un-inked. A small piece of ribbon and some dimensionals make sure it has extra interest.
I'm away on holiday at the moment so forgive me for not commenting this week, I will look at all your creations when I get back as I really want to know what everyone has done with this combination. Happy Crafting.
