3 in one challenge card!!


No, I wasn't being lazy...I really did put a lot of thought into getting one card to fit all three challenges!
Firstly I used the colours ecru,tan and sky blue for the Colour Create challenge , used the sketch provided by the team at Double Dutch and added the sweets needed to fit the new challenge Allsorts .
I did manage to include gloss- it's on the coffee but doesn't show up in the photo..
What I used;
Image............my own sketch coloured with Promarkers
Swiss dots Cuttlebug embossing folder
Sizzix leaves
Hand drawn swirl
shabbyprincess downloaded paper
Thanks for looking, Ruth

    Hi Ruth, this is a lovely balanced card and so clever to combine the challenges together, that's never easy.

    Great card. Beautiful image and colours.

    I think it's harder to combine challenges than do them all seperately.. I get all confused, lol.
