4 Crafty Chicks Meets the Colour Q!


Hey everyone!  Welcome back for a brand new challenge from the 4 Crafty Chicks.  I think I gave you *too* much of a challenge last week - hopefully this week's challenge will be a bit easier for y'all.  The hostess with the mostest is Tamie and she has created a very interesting sketch for you all to work with:


I think this sketch leaves the door wide open for some really fun interpretations.  I decided to use one of this week's Colour Qs for my color palette.  Arielle has given us one combination that honors Breast Cancer awareness and another that has a distinctly Halloween-y feel to it.  I'll be doing that one soon but for this card I went with the Breast Cancer Awareness inspiration:


Don't you love these rubber boots?  I would be proud to wear them ANYTIME.  :)  I still had a few scraps of these colors sitting on my desk from last week's TCP card so off I went.  The two little squares in the sketch kind of had me stumped in the beginning but I finally decided that they didn't both *have* to be squares...one could be the sentiment and the other would be a bow:


Recipe - Stamps: Friendly Notes (SU!)  Ink: Versafine Onyx Black  Paper: Very Vanilla, Regal Rose, Basic Black, Sending Love DSP, unknown Pink Pirouette DSP  Accessories: Scallop Edge border punch, square punches, Nestabilities, Pretty in Pink satin ribbon, Vintage Black Pearl Trinket Pins, Kassie's Brocade embossing folder, Scor-tape, felt flower, velvet flower, crocheted flower, black brad

I hope you will take some time and play along with us at the 4 Crafty Chicks - we all love to peek at your blogs and see what you create.  Enjoy your Thursday!
