Blogger's Challenge--Black, White and Orange

Today Lisa gave us a color challenge, I didn't want to do Halloween so I thought about the beautiful Peach Parfait color we have in our in colors this this.  And went from there.  Such a simple card, but yet, I like it.






The stamps are retired but I still love them.  Polka Dot Posies (I think).  And we really do not have too many of these long sentiments in the catalog anymore--or am I missing them, lol.  Well keeping it short today, got to run.
