Fab Work of Art

It's another Fab Friday color challenge! This time the challenge is to use the new 2014-2016 Stampin' Up In-Colors:



Now this is really a challenge for me, because once you get past three colors in the color scheme (not counting neutrals), I kind of freak out and the card becomes a hot mess. I almost skipped this challenge all together, but I pressed on. I came up with a simple design that I think works (kinda).

(Stamp Sets: Work of Art, Teeny Tiny Wishes; Inks: Blackberry Bliss, Hello Honey, Tangelo Tango, Mossy Meadow, Lost Lagoon; Card Stock: Blackberry Bliss, Hello Honey, Whisper White; Accessories: Hello Honey Stitched Satin Ribbon, Banners Framelits Collection)
I used my grid paper to line up the wavy lines and the stamp-a-ma-jig to add the hearts at the bottom. I had the panel almost stamped and added the Lost Lagoon waves and then, oh poopadoop! I had them upside down and backwards! As I always say in demonstrations and classes: there are two sides to the paper. On the second go-round, I put a dot at the top of stamp so I'd know which end was up. It would have been so bad if I hadn't had to clean the stamp over and over and over.
