This weeks challenge at "Stampin´for the Weekend as the title suggests we have a colour combo for you. We would like you to take some inspiration from the two photos below. Kimmi had great fun with the strawberries, and guess what, she devoured the lot after she had taken the photo and said they tasted delicious ! The Tulip photo is from me and I must say there is nothing more beautiful to see in Holland than the miles and miles of tulip fields. So I hope using the title and the colours below you find some real inspiration.
This week our sponsor is the lovely Heidi from Simon Says Stamp and she is again offering the lucky winner a fabulous gift voucher of $25 to spend in the shop. Such a pity I can´t enter!
For my card I started with my designer papers and these have been chosen from the "Strawberry Collection" in the Designer Inserts Extreme and Designer Extreme Vol 11 cd´s and from here my card fell together no problem.
I have coloured my image with Prisma pencils blending with sansodor ... she is from an Australian company called Stamp It.I added some small pearls for her necklace. chalked the edges and adhered some flat backed gems and kept it simple finishing off with a few tiny roses and small bow.
I have carried the main paper through to inside mirroring the design and included a verse, how easy peasy is that and a quick, no hassle finishing touch at the touch of a button!
I look forward to visiting your blogs to see how you interpret this weeks challenge and on a final note why don´t you also visit the Design Team members blogs too as I know Donna, Kimmi, Amy, Claire, Ida, Vanja and Vicki would appreciate some love too.
Have a wonderful weekend. -x-
