One card, three challenges!

Hello, hello!

Anybody else excited for the weekend? I've got both Friday and Saturday off and I am super pumped for that! I even plan on making a day trip to the 'big' city on Saturday to do some much needed shopping with a bit of fun shopping thrown in for good measure. ;)

So my card today incorporates three different challenges and I'm pretty darn proud of that achievement, LOL! First, it follows the new sketch for the Tickled Pink monthly challenge... which, if you decide to play along, has a fabulous prize of ALL SIX NEW LIL LOLITAS! Can you say awesome?! You can use any of the stamps found in the Tickled Pink store to participate in the monthly challenge so there are a lot to choose from. :)
Second challenge up is this week's Lil Lolita Boutique challenge to use ribbon. It can be a little or a lot, just so long as you have some ribbon somewhere on your card. You do have to use a Lil Lolita to play along in this one so if you've gotten yours already why don't you join us... you just might win your choice of any three in stock Lil Lolita stamps!
And finally Tickled Pink is also sponsoring The Color Throwdown's 100th challenge and the color combo to use is; regal rose, certainly celery, real red and baja breeze... basically pink, green, red and blue. Luckily for me I had this perfect piece of paper on my desk that covered all four colors. To be honest everything but the ribbon was scrounged from the clutter on my desk so it's a bit of an eclectic mix but I think it works. I also altered Mod Ivy just a bit by drawing a cute little purse for her to carry to her lunch date. :)

Whew! That's a lot going on for one little card don'tcha think? Well, thanks so much for dropping by!
