Just us girls # 454

Hello!

This is my 3rd week Guesting for 
and this week is Colour week
 
 
Lovely summer colours don't you think?
 
Here's what I came up with
 
 
There are so many ways to use these colours and I actually did another card which I'll share with you another time but this one just evolved with no plan in mind. It started with some ink blending in the 3 colours shown using 2 distress oxides Broken China and Fossilised Amber plus an ordinary distress ink Twisted Citron and then I die cut the sentiment and the balloon.


The little bear was coloured with Copics and I played about with triangle dies to come up with this design


We are so looking forward to seeing what you come up with this week... The team have created some wonderful cards to inspire you so pull out your inks, your paints, papers or whatever your preferred medium is and share with us at 

Have fun!

I love how you used the color combo for the die cut words--so pretty & festive, Ros! You're very clever using the triangles--I've liked all your cards with them!

Your card - or rather the colors on it - make me think of lemon ice-tea by the sea... it's probably tapped into me secret desires! Anyhow, it's a real winner!

Absolutely ADORABLE! Love your design ... you always inspire me!!

Your bear is so sweet Ros and the way you have placed the stitched triangles works beautifully for a quite unusual design, and I love your tri-coloured large die cut sentiment which frames the triangles perfectly. x
