Hey, Hey!!! Happy Friday, friends!!!! I hope you had a great week. Have you been playing along? I am loving reading all of the comments and seeing the projects!!!!
So this week is seriously FUN! This is a "MIX UP" challenge. You choose any of the challenges from the month and mix them up! I chose to use the color challenge from our very first challenge and the sketch from week 2.
CLICK on the graphic above to be taken directly to the challenge
****Oh, hint, hint - you might really want to go to the site - ahem.... PRIZE****
Despite having a little bit of a hard time with the original sketch, this came together quite easily for me:
Following a trend I've seen a lot recently, I used my Marvelous Markers to create the background with Calypso Coral, Crushed Curry and Pool Party. I had to sneak my Starburst Framelits in just one more time.
I LOVE the pop of black with these colors too! Embossing always adds a nice touch.
Looking for one of the items I used? Just click on the item below.
Thanks for playing along with us!
I also hope that you'll play along with us every week at TGIF Challenges.
So that's a hand drawn background?? Very cool look...Definitely going on my bucket list! Like the addition of the loose twine swirlie, too...fits perfect with the look of the background :-)

The glittery stars are a great accent

Your stripey background is an amazing way to bring together all the colours from the challenge.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE the marker idea for the background! I am always looking for different ways to create backgrounds.

Love the glittery stars layered over the dsp. I've missed seeing how people make the loose rings of twine and thread on their cards. I've tried it and I can't seem to make them look very good--would love a quick tutorial on that technique, Thanks!

Love how you made the dsp...I was wondering which dsp package is that from...lol.
Such a fun card with all the different textures! :)
