Wishing You Brighter Days

Hello!
It's my turn to host at City Crafter again this week and inspired by the bright colours around lately I have come up with the challenge 
Citrus Flavour


This week I want you to create a card or project that includes 
ALL 3 Citrus colours Orange, Lemon & Lime
You may use other colours just as long as these 3 are included

I made a card for a lady in Blogland from the USA who I don't actually know but I heard that she went through a terrible ordeal so I wanted to send something from the UK to cheer her up. It's always good to know people are thinking of you


I used Goosebumps and an old HA stamp on a piece of white card then sponged inks over it


The clock hands were also sponged over ... My card looks much more vibrant IRL but it was a dull rainy day when I took these photos and I needed to get it in the post


Our Guest Designer this week is Ela a previous winner at City Crafter ... Ela creates the most wonderful projects ... the detail is beautiful! Hop over and take a look at her work
Our winner this week will also have a GD spot with us ... 

I hope you are having a good week so far ... 

Have a lovely day and thanks so much for stopping by

Gorgeous juice colours and I bet your card is even more zingy in real life! What a lovely thing to do- but that doesn't really surprise me about you! x

This card already comes across as vibrant - can't imagine what it looks like IRL! It will definitely be as uplifting as you intend it to be.
