It's Tuesday so must be a colour challenge at The Outlawz

Good morning fellow bloggers,

Today  is the last Tuesday of August...can you believe it, and I have the honour of choosing the inspirational photo, palette and twist for this week's colour challenge at The Outlawz.

 This is what you need to do. Make a card or any project using at least 3 of the 5 colours, and also using the twist, which is to add stripes. Enter the card in the challenge telling us which colours you have used...it is that easy. We would love to see you join us and the DT have made some gorgeous cards to inspire you, so I really hope you will come and join  in the fun.


This is the last week of the sponsorship by Bugaboo stamps and they have a lovely prize of 7 images for the winner.



                             Now on to my card.





I used midnight blue cardstock and matted a luscious lime DP onto it

The image is 'Coffee time, may your cup' and you can find it HERE I coloured it with distress inkpads, cut it out with an X-cut die and matted onto a Citron yellow die cut.

The sentiment goes with the Coffee Time image and also mounted this onto the same DP.

The corners were cut from striped paper, and finished off with buttons.



I will enter the following challenges:

Live, love, laugh ...colour challenge

Good morning friends,
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
Quirky crafts challenge #13...stencils/or masks
Robyn's Fetish challenge #218...Stipes or Dots
The Crafters Café challenge 369,,,Polka dots and ribbon
 Inky Impressions challenge #165...Anything goes
 Nutcrafters challenge #71...Anything but square
 Penny's Paper-crafty challenge #183...Embossing ..heat or dry
Crafty Girls challenge #21...Anything goes
Crafting at the weekend challenge #3...Anything goes
Crafting from the Heart challenge #25...Anything goes
The Pink Elephant challenge #257

My Craft Creations...Anything goes
CCC Digi Creations challenge #4...Embossing wet or dry
Craft your passion challenge #220...Ribbon

That's all from me for now, have another card for tomorrow. Will see you then. Thanks for popping in and I do love it if you leave me a comment. I read all of them. Take care.

Love Ursula
