I'm excited to announce that this fortnight I'm a Guest Designer at The Paper Girls. The newest challenge has a photo to show the color theme. Notice that green wasn't selected as one of the colors to use despite all the green in the photo. :-D I used an image (Bella Rose) from Conie Fong and here's how I used the colors.
I colored with ProMarkers and fussy cut the image with scissors. The black oval was cut with a die from Spellbinders. I mounted that onto a pink card base and added the image using dimensional dots so that the image is actually raised above the black oval.
I printed the sentiment, hand cut it, and matted it with a scrap of black. The bowtie bow was made using white lace which I 'dyed' pink with a ProMarker. I love it when CAS designs look more complex that they are. :-D

I hope we're going to see you playing in the challenge at The Paper Girls some time in the next two weeks. Those are such lovely colors - lots of neutrals with a gorgeous pink for balance. How could you resist? Happy Crafting. NanaConnie
