My card this morning will hopefully cheer everyone up as I have gone with the springtime flower colours suggested by Daring card makers and the flowers of violets and primroses which are apparently the flowers of February. This one I made for no one in particular and simply for the try at the colour blending challenge at Make it colourful.
I used one of my LOTV stamps , wish I could afford more as they are just so cute and decided that I would use some of the ribbon flowers I'd been playing at making too.
There is also a colour challenge of blending blue and purples at make it colourful so I actually remembered to make a not of which Promarkers I used, well the blues and purples anyway, so the hat I used Prussian blue,royal blue and purple. The dress I used bluebell lilac and lavender and the shoes violet and bluebell.I know Zoe gave a tip to use purples as shadows but the dress I actually did in reverse and used Bluebell for the shades.The yellow underskirt and flowers I used primrose and buttermilk and leaf green.
The ribbon flowers I made using a tutorial on RRR from before Christmas, sorry not sure of the exact link.
I put everything on a pearlised lilac card and did some dry embossing around the edge to form a frame. The ribbon is recycled from a bought card and the mirri card from my scraps box.I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:-
Make it colourful-blend purples and blues
