Pals Paper Arts Color Challenge


August...? What in the world? I can't believe how quickly these days pass! And before you know it, it's time for another color challenge at Pals Paper Arts! Here we go...


DEEtails:
I cheated a little on this one... But it just wasn't right with that little bit of Gumball Green Stippled Blossoms leaves peeking out behind my Strawberry Slush Flower Shop flowers. I do apologize. Behind them, I layered some DSP and some Strawberry Slush card stock. More cheating - I used So Saffron since I didn't have Daffodil Delight. It's a tad on the dull side, but it works. I used a white gel pen to add some faux stitching on paper banners. Then I added some Chevron ribbon. Will the cheating ever stop?! This time I used Crushed Curry. Everything is layered over some cute chevron DSP from I Am Me and matted with some Basic Gray on my Smoky Slate card. Some Rhinestone Jewels add a little pizzazz to my card.

Now it's your turn! Get out your favorite crafty goodies and link up your creation to the Pals Paper Arts blog. It's okay if you cheat a little... I won't tell! :)

  3. Love the designer paper as the back drop and matting it gave it a great depth! The chevron ribbon is a perfect touch - just love it!

  6. Gorgeous bouquet, Nina! Loved your vacation "misses" too! I'm on vacay right now, and I miss things less because I'm visiting my new granddaughter! But I'm missing the hubby as he stayed home this trip!
