A Challenge

 I was given a challenge to copy a card from the current Stampin' Up! Idea Book & Catalog, but I had to use different stamps and a different color scheme.  I chose to copy the layout from page 87 Pony Party card.  Go ahead and look it up if you have the catalog and let me know what you think!  If you don't have the catalog, just click on the catalog on the left side of my blog to download a copy of the current catalog.  It was fun and easy to do and it just goes to show anybody can copy a card from the book and come up with a totally different look using your own stamps and papers that you have on hand.  I challenge you to go ahead and try to copy a card from the catalog  and use your own stamps and color scheme.  It was really fun to do!
I knew what colors I wanted to use but wasn't sure what base color I wanted for sure so I made two using same colors and changing the base color around.  I think I like the one with the Soft Suede base color best!  How about you?
