Friday Mashup 27


This week at the Friday Mashup they have a Colour Challenge.  The colours are Not Quite Navy, Poppy Parade and Sahara Sand.  I soon realized I was out of Sahara Sand Paper and subbed in Crumb Cake.  I added a strip of the crocheted ribbon along the card for a bit of texture.


The flowers are from the new BigzL Die from the new SU! Mini Catalogue called "Fun Flowers".  I sponged each flower with Poppy Parade Ink and added some "umph" to the flower by putting dimensionals between each flower!!  The sentiment seems to be my favourite of late, from the "Afterthoughts" Level One Hostess Set which I love.  On the Not Quite Navy portion I have stamped the words from the "Charming" set.  All the pieces on this card are sponged with the same colour ink as the cardstock, so the card appears softer.

Go have a look at the Friday Mashup Challenge this week and play along!
Smiles,
Lesley
