Limited Supplies and more Bali Breeze

Happy Friday!
Or is it?! I've been fighting with my shawmail and I'm ready to pull my hair out...ugh! Seems that I can send email NO problem using my old hotmail so if I must....I'll go back to using that. Keep you posted!
This card here is for todays Limited Supplies Challenge on SCS. You were to make a Long and/or Tall Card with no DP ;)
I challenged myself to use some colours I rarely pull out. Gable Green and Pixie Pink....I think they look refreshing together!
Since my Nesties haven't arrived yet, I've created that faux nestie look with my corner rounder. I cut strips of paper and used the corner rounder and then lined them up under the pink layer. Unfortunately they didn't line up in the corners all nice and pretty....haha....so I placed the Prima Flowers over them to hide my boo boo! I'm thinking it may be too much though....
Stamps: Stampendous Bees; Cardstock: Gable Green, Pixie Pink, PTI White; Inks: Brilliance Black, Gable Green; Accessories: Copics, Corner Rounder, Primas, Dew Drops, Misc Ribbon, Dimensionals
Now this is another set I made for the challenge with Joanne and Nancy. Remember....I didn't pay close attention and it was supposed to be a long card that fit in a business envelope? lol
I made one of Nichole Heady's Coaster Photo Album.

I've got to run...but if you need any details please ask!

Thanks for stopping by!
