A new challenge begins today over at Sugar Creek Hollow. This time as well as keeping to our Vintage/Shabby Chic style we had to use 'The Colours of our Countries Flag'.
So the new theme is to- Make a card featuring the colours seen on your Country's flag.
Please pop over to see what we have all been making and meet out Guest Designer Sanja .
You will probably have guessed by now that I live in the U.K.
Red [Victorian Velvet distress ink], white [papers] and blue [Denim Adirondak], were the colours I used.
The trimmings were the easy part on this card, it was which stamped image I wanted to use that caused me bother. Would it look okay stamped out in blue, with minimum colouring added.? I did think she looked a bit pale hence the slight shading with the D.I.
The stamp I used was one from Inkadinkado.
Thank you for stopping by, I do appreciate your comments.
It's turned out lovely! Beautiful image, too, and red, white and blue are lovely colours! Valerie

She looks just fine Yvonne! Just imagine if you lived in Italy....she'd have looked a bit green around the gills :-)

Lovely to see those colours being used in a vintage style piece... the pop of red is great with those soft blues, and such a pretty image.
