This week's challenge at Pals Paper Arts is to create a card using one of my favorite color combos, Lavendar Lace, Barely Banana, and Certainly Celery (PPA36). This pretty pastel combination of colors makes me think of Spring, Easter, new beginnings! Today's card also features three of my favorite Stampin' Up! stamps: Bella Toile background, Polka Dots background (retired), and a single floral image from the Together Forever set. Check out the Pals Paper Arts challenge blog for inspirational ideas from the PPA Design Team, then join the fun! Get out your supplies and create a card for this week's color challenge using these beautiful colors! The possibilities are endless! Post your card on PPA via InLinkz before 12:00 Noon CST on Tuesday, April 6, 2010! Who knows...you might just be a Pals Paper Arts Artist Pick!
