Hallo
Today I've tried something different. Not so much the image, from daisy doodles, but more the colour scheme. Purple and orange. This morning I was scrabbling through my stash for papers for my son's birthday invitations and my I caught this purple backpaper with the christmas design. Then I remembered Use it Tuesday's challenge for purple, orange and black - all or any choice. The image is one of the digis from Crafters Digital Art Centre's 6th round progressive challenge, with theme of winter wonderland. A.F. Wells once said "Take Christ out of Christmas and December becomes the most dismal and drab time of the year." From there my choice of a star brad used with some lilac ribbon. Brazzille cardstock from my stash and I've used a spellbinder diecut and the digi was coloured with aquarelles.
I was guided by the following challenges:
CDAC progressive challenge round 6 - cdacpc6, daisydoodles
Sweet Sketch Wednesday #126 - sketch
Use it Tuesday #18 - Colors Orange, purple
Crimbo Crackers #1 - Anything goes for christmas
Meljen's design #83 - Use a brad or more
Thank you
Olga
