Challenge # 25 - Crafting when we can

-
This week at Crafting when we can challenges, our challenge is Rainbows (make it as colorful as you can).  And your wonderful sponsor is Di's Digi Downloads


For this challenge I was really wondering which image to work with... While I was debating this I realized that I had already colored something that would be perfect while I was on vacation.  See awhile back I had won some digis from Scrapbook Stamp Society and I had chosen as one of them Shade of green 1st.

Isn't it a pretty image?  You will be getting a closer look soon lol.  The paper that I used for this card comes from K & cie and it's called Wild raspberry.  I used the tags fancy from Sizzix to cut out the image and the paper underneath it.  I also used my circle and scallop circle dies for the sentiment.  I added some flourishes made using Marianne creatables LR0150 and LR0151 (did I tell you guys how addicted I am to dies now?!?  It's all Kim Bell's fault lol :D)

The flower is a mix from Doodlebug design flowers and prisma flowers.

Here's the closer look at the digi that I promised.  I used copics to color it up and used stickles on the wings and Wild honey distress ink around the edge:


I had the wonderful saying from TLC called Chase butterflies.  I thought this was just perfect for this card.


I really hope that you have liked my creation and that you will be joining us at Crafting when we can challenges.  This challenge is an easy one :D  We all love to use colors so come on so that I have a chance to comment on your entries.

I'm entering this card in the following challenges:
  1. Sparkles forum challenges - Nature
  2. Fab n funky challenges - fairies
  3. Flutter by wednesdays - anything goes with a fairy or butterfly (soooo happy that the challenge is back :D)
  4. Craft your days away - anything goes
  5. The crafty pad - dies or punches (I used dies)
  6. Whoopsi Daisy - Add a sentiment
  7. No matter which challenges - Anything goes
  8. Marianne design divas - summer challenge
I will be back with another post in a little while.  See you in a bit.

Hugs

Vicky
