I must have been in the mood for really quick cards yesterday; I made three that only took about 10 to 15 minutes each. So here's today's super-fast card:
Can't beat silver glimmer paper for the immediate wow factor. I was going to stamp Positively Chevron in white on the Lucky Limeade card base, but then I remembered this pattern from last year's Summer Smooches DSP, and why make it harder than it has to be? So much faster this way.
For my color inspiration, I used the challenge palette from Color Throwdown:
And paired it with this no-muss, no-fuss fun Retro Sketch:
Et voila! Done. Better yet, I'm kind of in love with this card, which is a lovely and unexpected bonus for something that took almost no time to put together. :)
Have a fabulous day, friends! Thanks for checking out Snapdragon Stamps today.

Gotta love quick and easy and yet so beautiful! Thanks so much for playing along with us at Color Throwdown!
Oh yes, I DO really like that -- LOVE the color combo. Funny, some of these backgrounds remind me of the dress that Mrs. Baxley wore -- my 3rd grade teacher. It made my eyes go wonky every time, but I could NOT STOP LOOKING AT IT. Ah, memories! Love ya!
Fun use of the sketch and colors!! Yes, I love a little sparkle too!! Thxs for playing at CTD!
