Evening Oceanfront (CCMC770)

Happy Thursday! It’s time for Create With Connie & Mary, and this week we have a color challenge: Gray Granite/Moody Mauve/Misty Moonlight. What would you do with this color combination? I must admit, I’m very interested to see what the Team creates with this combo! I decided to go dark evening oceanfront with the Oceanfront Stamp Set. This is an older set that has been around awhile. I love it and it was fun trying out some new, more imaginative colors with it!

Here is the color board:

Here is my card:
