Yesterday's effort was successful

I managed to link my card to the Dynamic Duos challenge and even got a lovely comment about the card.  The teams from the challenges are very kind and very encouraging ...... so I've decided to try another entry while I'm on a roll.

This time I'm entering two challenges with the same card.  

Nacho Averages required the use of crushed curry, bermuda bay and strawberry slush (all great colours) and Try Stampin' On  Tuesday has a sketch.  I've never worked with a sketch before but I have been inspired by Sara Hoogendoorn whose cards I love.  She is on the team at Try Stampin' On Tuesday and kindly gave me the names of some other challenge sites.

OK, I'm very impressed that I could upload my photo so quickly today.  If I keep doing this for a while maybe I won't forget how it's done.

Now to link to the challenge sites.

    Helen, I love the bright colors you've used! Mixing them with black really brings them out too. Love your ombre effect under the "Thanks" too. Since I didn't play with Try Stampin' on Tuesday this week I'll just say keep on stamping and posting. I hope to see you on more challenges out there. :)
