Good morning everyone...
I hope you are all having a great week.... we had quite a little snow storm this week and are expecting more in the next few days. Darn... just when I thought spring was on its way!!
We had some fun with our birthday celebration and a fabulous turn out for the challenge, so many gorgeous creations. A big Thank You for all the wonderful comments too.
Without further ado.....the winner of my blog candy is....
"Kelly Schelske".
Congratulations Kelly!! Just contact me with your address and I will get your stamp and the card off to you.
The Colour Create Challenge this week is brought to us by the lovely "Janiel" and she has chosen "Red, Black and Off-white with the extra option of silver or pewter brads".
Our wonderful sponsor for this challenge is "Whimsy Stamps"
I just love this colour scheme and decided this adorable image
"American Cowthic" from High Hopes would be just perfect for it....
I embossed the image with black and painted it with Tombows. The off-white on the cows was painted with icicle H2o's. I did some ripping and distressing on the card stock to give it a bit of a rustic look. I added some glossy accents to the pitch fork and bell. I used some natural jute for the braid and the bow. The brads are silver and I punched the circles with an ordinary 3 hole punch and glued them into the center.
Be sure to check out the Colour Create Blog as my teamies have some fabulous creations to share with you. Also all the winners from the Birthday Celebration will be announced there too.
Have a great day and Thanks so much for stopping by....
