Paper Players Challenge- A Sketch by Nance

Wow!  Two weeks away from the computer has flown by and I am back!  My hubby and I had a great time on the Oregon Coast and then spent this past week fishing at a lake about 4 hours from our home.  It was lovely.  I have to say, I was pretty proud to be the lead fisher "person" with 3 fish caught!!  Yippee!  And they were BIG trout!  It was exciting and they were sure yummy cooked on the campfire!  Corey has the camera, he and his dad are off ocean fishing today, but I will add some photos of our trip(s) as soon as the camera is back!

Today at the Paper Players Nance has created a terrific sketch for us to try!  I made a card for it a LONG time ago, right when I first saw her wonderful sketch!  I changed up the ribbon placement, mostly because of memory problems, but I am happy with how the card turned out!!!  I hope you like it too! My card club made this card for their last class.  We were doing watercolouring, I used Tangerine Tango and Peach Parfait for my colour choices.

We hope that you will join the Paper Players Challenge this week!  Please be sure to visit the other DT Members to see their wonderful creations!

PPC #64- Thinking of "Blue"

This week at Picture Perfect Creations we have a fun colour combo that had me stumped for a while!!! I was all over the Suede, Peach and Cherry colours but how would I fit in the Blue?  I decided to ink up my "French Foliage" stamp set and used the blue as an accent for the postage stamp image in the set!

I also used some Peach Parfait DSP from the Paisley Petals pack.  I love this pretty pattern and chose it first when I began my card.  The leaves are rock and rolled in Cherry, Peach and Soft Suede inks so they worked perfectly with this combo.

We hope that you will join the Picture Perfect Creations this week!  Please be sure to visit the other DT Members to see their wonderful creations!

Exciting News!!!

I am excited to share that I have been accepted onto the wonderful Colour Dare Design Team!  To start off my design team duties, Riley has asked us to use the colours:

Rose Red

Baja Breeze

Sahara Sand

I absolutely loved these pretty colours and I thought of my new "On the Grow" stamp set from the Summer Mini Catalogue.  So I inked up the flowers from that set with my Stazon Inkpad in Black and watercoloured the flowers with my aqua marker. 

Then I added some dimension but using Crystal Effects on my flowers and the glass vase, to make them shiny and different.  You can see the Crystal Effects much better if you click on the photo to enlarge it!

Stop on by the Colour Dare to play along!
