Challenge #59 - Double

We are squeaking in an extra Thursday this month - that means a Double Challenge. Not only do we have a color challenge, but also a sketch - and you need to use them both!

Deadline: Wednesday, February 5, 2014, 18.00 GMT

While we've indicated the colours using Stampin'Up names, you do not have to use Stampin'Up products for your cards. Please do use colours that are close.

Feel free to flip or rotate the sketch when creating your card.

I know these double challenges are, well, doubly challenging - but you can do it!

Here is some inspiration from the design team to get your creative juices flowing:

Jacqueline

Karen

Lizy

• You must create a Clean and Simple styled card - sorry, but no scrapbook pages, tags, 3D projects, etc.
