Hi Stampers, Today we have a color challenge using Lovely Lipstick, Lemon Lime Twist and Black.  The DSP paper, Broadway Bound was the perfect choice for my share today.  I did have the paper but did not order in the matching stamp set.  Since I did not have the stamp set I let the beautiful paper do all the work for me today.  This card just had the stamped sentiment, the rest was all paper.  I love a quick card every once in awhile and this fast card did the trick.

Here is the color challenge:

Stampin’ Up! Broadway Bound:

Here is the recipe:

Card base: Whisper White 4-1/4 x 11, scored at 5-1/2

Mat: Basic Black 4 x 5-1/4

DSP: Broadway Bound Balloon paper 3-7/8 x 5-1/8

DSP Broadway Bound Patterned paper 3-7/8 x 2

Sentiment: Whisper White 3/4 x 3-1/2 punched with the Triple Banner Punch

Here are the details:

• Adhere your DSP panels to the Black mat
• Wrap a piece of Lovely Lipstick Ribbon around the card where the DSP panels meet

• Attach the balloons as follows: White:glue dots, Lovely Lipstick:  one dimensional, Gray Granite: double stacked dimensionals
• Attach three Black Bakers Twine strings and  two matching bows (disclaimer: I did not have any bakers twine so I used the black cording.  I discovered if I cut into it it has two cords running through it and cut them a part to get my black string) This was more time consuming but pretty creative to make my own black thread!
• 
• Attach your sentiment with dimensionals
• Add your Lovely Lipstick bow and some Glitter dots for added sparkle
