29 Again???


 
 
This was my final week of being the guest designer for the color challenge at The Outlawz. The Twist was Birthday Bling. The colors were: cocktail pink, aqualicious, and pots of orange. The image is from Art Impressions. I just saw them at the CK convention this past weekend. It was the first time I have ever seen them at a convention. Their booth was lots of fun.

Create your own Background

 
 
The color challenge at The Outlawz this past week was to make your own background. I created my background by die-cutting the ric-rac pieces and then piecing them together as my background.

Color challenge


 
I am the guest designer for the month of July for the color challenge at The Outlawz. This is my first card. The colors that were used are: Magic Maroon, Mystic Blue, and Dream Emerald. You needed to add pearls. I used two Outlines stamps to do this. They images were stamped in black and clear embossed. These original Outlines stamps have always been some of my favorites.
