we've got a lovely challenge for you. And the lovely part is this inspirational photo....
aren't those colours wonderful? So soft and pretty! Now, I normally hate colour challenges. That's 'coz I really tend to struggle with them, even if it's colours I like, and I end up throwing myself across my desk in dramatic agony yelling, "Colour challenge! Why, oh why, must you hobble my creativity so?!?!" but this one ended up being fairly easy for me. This is what I did.....
I used an image from the Mini and Many Friends set. I love this adorable set. So super cute.
Now, let's talk about kraft paper for a minute. Ah, kraft paper....I do love you. So, why is it that I don't use you like I should? Honestly, I really don't know. But it's like I use it once and then my next six cards will have a least some kraft paper on it (though it might not look that way on my blog as I tend to work away at my dt duties in random order rather than chronologically) and then I don't even touch it again for months and months. And it deserves better than that.
Hard to tell from the photo but I cut the sentiment on my Silhouette three times, glued them together and then plastered it with Glossy Accents for that fake Thicker look. When the card was all done I started second guessing my font choice. Though, I'm pretty sure you all know it says "hello" and not "ncllo" so I think I'll just leave it as is.
So why not grab a Tiddly Inks image, let that inspirational photo do its work and enter the challenge? And be sure to also check out the fabulousness the DT has come up with.
