1 July, I can hardly believe it, but yes we are halfway through this year. Well it is Tuesday again and that means another colour challenge at The Outlawz.
This week Laurian has chosen the beautiful inspirational photo with colour palette and the easy twist to add pearls.
We are so lucky to have Bugaboo Stamps as our sponsor for this month, and the DT have mostly used one of their images, so please hop on over and have a look at the lovely cards. We would really love you to come and join in the fun.
For my card I have used the image 'Live, Love, Laugh" and this is my card.
Paper - Plain cardstock in the colours required, punched the corners. Embossed a piece of white card with a Dutch Doobadoo stencil and then coloured it with Pan Pastels with the stencil still in place.
Image - I coloured with Distress Inkpads, and added pearls.
Added ribbon with a bow.
I do love the simplicity of the card and I have had a number of people requesting cards without too much on, as they are concerned about posting. This size is also quite popular as opposed to the larger square cards.
Will enter the following challenges:
Opus-gluei challenge #186...All tied up
