Two For Thursday...

Here's my first June project for Zva Creative. I've used felt flowers in different sizes, brads, large 3D flowers, pearls, rhinestones and bling flourishes. Paper is by Crate Paper. Die cuts by My Mind's Eye. Alphas by AC Thickers and Carolees Creations. I hope you'll come back towards the end of the month to join me in my FIRST EVER BLOG HOP!!! I'm so excited, I just can't wait. (-:

Here's my take on challenge #146 over at Color Combos Galore. Just got this one done in time as the new challenge goes up Thursday (US time). I've used Zva Creative flowers, bling flourish and pearls, one Prima flower, a Hambly transparency, some Prima alphas, and some We R Memory Keepers and Prima papers. And some cardboard, paint and a sewing machine and thread. (-: I wanted a slightly rustic look to this layout. Not sure if I achieved that, or not? And did I mention how much of a challenge this really was? OMG!!!!! These colours are not easy to work with, especially when you have no lilac (or any shade of purple) supplies in your stash. Yes, I really struggled with this, and I am oh, so glad, they are not colours that I have to use everyday. Whew!!!
