This week's challenge at Totally Stampalicious is a color challenge - Brown, Green, & Blue!  I LOVE this color combo!!!  Since we got dumped with a foot of snow last night I was able to work from home and fit in my challenge card in place of my commute!  I'm so lucky I didn't have to drive in that mess!  So since it's very cold and snowy I felt inspired to work with Stella tonight.  I used this week's Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge 105 for the layout.  The best thing about this sketch was that I used SCRAPS that were laying around on my craft table.  Love when I can put my scraps to good use.  I need to remember this sketch!

Totally Stampalicious is having a New Release and Blog Hop this Thursday (Feb 24) at 9pm EST.  One lucky winner will get 4 new stamp sets!  The stamp set I used for this card is one that I won in their blog hop a few months back!  So mark your calendar and hop over to the Totally Stampalicious Blog on Thursday.

Thanks for stopping by and checking out my card!

Heehee, we all have days like this! The colours are wonderful and I love the way you used your scraps, alternating between patterned paper and embossed cardstock. I need to remember this!

Poor Stella! Hope you don't feel that way with all the snow. At least, you got to craft instead of going to work...now, that's fun. Love how you used your scraps to make this super card. Good job!!!!!
