Double D - Orange & White ... that's All!

Hello Dear Friends!

It's time once again for a new challenge over on the Double D Challenge Blog!

Diane is hosting today and as you can see by my blog title ... the theme is:

Orange & White ... THAT'S ALL!

 Here is the fabulous mood board she has created to help inspire you . . .

  

Here's what I came up with (the 2nd time around that is ... lol):

Obviously, I was inspired by the polka dot buttons and the

texture on the orange bottles.  In case you can't see

what I'm talking about here's a close up of the flower vase ...

The items I've used on today's card are:

Echo Park 'Dots & Stripes' 6x6 paper pack

Sue Wilson - Finishing Touches Collection - Hobnail Vase

Sue Wilson - Finishing Touches Collection - Dandelion Posies

Tutti Designs - Celebrate

I have a confession to make . . .

As I stated earlier, the card above was my 2nd time around ...

Unfortunately like so many others, I got in a hurry and didn't read the entire theme ...

you know the part where it says Orange and White ... THAT'S ALL!

So my first card looked like this:

Now mind you, it is a pretty card and it is now in my sale box for my upcoming Fall Shows but doesn't fit the theme since I used green ivy & leaves.  Hence this card which DOES fit the theme ...
