Challenge #503 - Double

Hello crafty friends!  Today Patricia is bringing you the first double challenge of the year!  When there is a fifth Tuesday in a month, we will have a double challenge, where we pair some favorite retired Stampin' Up colors with one of our previous CC&S sketches.  You must use the given color combination with the given sketch.  These challenges will last only one week.  Here's what we have for you this time:

You must use all of the stated challenge colors. You may also use neutral colors; however, the challenge colors should be the most noticeable ones featured on your card. We use Stampin' Up color names for reference, but you are welcome to use any other companies' products as long as you match the challenge colors as closely as possible.  Feel free to flip or rotate the sketch when creating your card. 

Our design team has created the following cards to inspire you:
