The different colors really caught my eye as I looked at the pictures, so I made a background with a Stampin' Up stamp. The sentiment is from Mark's Finest Papers.

MFP Simple Salutations #114 - play ball

This was a fun, fun challenge for me.  I was never a player but an avid spectator of most sports...especially baseball.  I spent a lot of time in the bleachers and always joked that I had more blankets and sweatshirts in my car during the summer than I did in the winter!!!  I made the little baseballs out of  white candies and drew the laces with a red Copic marker.

Thank you Mark's Finest Papers for choosing my card as the winner of this challenge.  I earned the ALL POSTAL stamp set.

MFP Sketch With a Twist #115 - yellow/gray

MFP SWAT #115 - yellow and gray
I used one of my favorite sayings for this card and chose a lacy-type background of gray and black.
I don't think of using yellow and gray together, but I like it that the challenges force us to use different color combos.....opens my eyes to a whole new world of possibilities.
