Color Throwdown SFYTT

I made this card for the Color Throwdown Week 100 Challenge. I used this week's Sketch for You to Try as my template with the colors below for my inspiration.


These are the required colors for the challenge and the sketch I followed:



It's really a pretty simple card, the hardest part was that big bow, I had initially cut the tails too short and they started to fray. Instead of mess with it, I took it off and made another one....with extra long tails. I really try to learn the first time around, doesn't always work that way though.
Have a great day and thanks for visiting!
