Cherry on Top

Hi, all! I'm back again with another publication reject...and more cherries! I seriously love American Crafts flair, and this cherry piece was the inspiration for the whole card. I played with the monochromatic look here, mixing SU's Cameo Coral with PTI's Berry Sorbet--two of my favorite colors. Hope you like it!

Stamps: Cherry on Top (A Muse), Polka Dot Basics (PTI)
Paper: Cameo Coral, Berry Sorbet, Bazzill white

Ink: Cameo Coral, Versamark

Accessories: Nestabilities circles, PTI ribbon, American Crafts flair, Kaisercraft pearl

I DON'T get it! {Did you say REJECT?} I think this is superb! Love the muted color with the CHERRY-PUNCH! Luscious! Like I told Kelley E., don't call it a reject, call it "a fine piece of artwork that _____ magazine regretted not being able to include in their publication at this time, probably, because these wasn't room, or the right color scheme to showcase this lovely piece in the light it deserved..... "

Anyway, that's what I think! hee hee Beautiful job, sweet thing!

Doesn't look like a reject to me. Really like your monochromatic scheme, I didn't realize that products from three lines work so well together! I ought to give it a try.

I love your style! I'm sure Elise is right...but to put it less generously, your card is obviously too good for the magazine!
