PPA#63 Color Challenge

I'd made this card back in September and was waiting for the perfect time to share it. It's a case of  the card in the catty on page 55. Well guess what, these colors are the colors of  the PPA#63 Color Challenge here. What a coincidence, right? The colors are Pear Pizzazz, Peach Parfait and Melon Mambo. I added some Soft Suede too.
So I started with a Peach Parfait base and added some DSP from the DSP Pack In-Color. I stamped the images from On a Pedestal in Soft Suede, Pear Pizzazz and Peach Parfait. I colored in the cherry with the Melon Mambo and Pear Pizzazz Stampin write markers, cut it out and adhered it to the top of the Parfait cupcake. I stamped the sentiment in Melon Mambo, punched it out with the 1 3/8 inch square punch and layered it onto a Melon Mambo piece punched with the Scallop Square punch. Finally, I added a piece of 1/2 inch Pear Pizzazz stitched-poly ribbon.
Here's my recipe:
Stamps: On a Pedestal
Papers: Whisper White, Peach Parfait, Melon Mambo, DSP Pack In-Color
Inks: Pear Pizzazz, Peach Parfait, Melon Mambo, Soft Suede
Accessories: 1 3/8 inch Square punch, Scallop Square punch, 1/2 inch Pear Pizzazz stitched-poly ribbon
