I've been very faithful the sketch, and I've matched the colours as closely as I can. I don't have much card from Stampin' Up!, so I do try. I found these colours rather difficult at first, in fact I wouldn't have put them together at all. But once the card was finished, it was obvious that this colour combination works. It's a strong palette and I think the way I've used it, quite masculine!
Stamps: See D's - You're the Star
Inks: Memento - Cottage Ivy; Distress - Scattered Straw
Accessories: Martha Stewart punch; Stampendous - Detail Gold embossing powder
Card, paper and ribbon: - from my stash
I can't remember which company made the stamp I used. It's part of a set of clear stamps which features a very large capital X, and images and words starting with X. I have most of the alphabet, but I didn't keep the company details. If anyone recognises it - please let me know.
That's all for now. I'm off back to play a bit more. I'll be posting again later this evening.

This is lovely, the colours are fab, and the sentiment looks great!
What a super cute card, Deborah! Thanks so much for playing again with us on the ColourQ
I agree it's a good masculine colour combination. The yellow ribbon across those two reds on your card reminds me of high-class pyjamas!
Very effective, especially that striped star. Love the clean look to this.
