I used today's colour challenge to play with my brand new goodies! Us UK demos are allowed to pre-order some new catty stuff and I was anxiously waiting for the arrival of the UPS man today so I could get my hands on the in colours and new stamps and start playing! I used the Friends Never Fade set (we in the UK have a greeting-less version due to translation issues I think...) and the hostess set Occasional Quotes.
The main image was stamped 3 times - once in Peach Parfait and twice in Concord Crush. I cut out the flowers from the Concord images (one a little smaller than the first so I could paper-tole). I added some shading with an aqua painter and inkpads.
The Peach Parfait layer in the background was stamped with another stamp from the same set. I added a strip of Newsprint DSP (LOVE this stuff!!). The brads are from the Hodgepodge Hardware kit.
I used this week's Card Patterns sketch for the layout.
TFL!
