Poppy Sketches #1

 


Poppy Sketches is a new blog and this is their first challenge.
 http://poppysketches.blogspot.com/
It is a biweekely challenge, so you have lots of time to play. 

Use this sketch with a Pop of color.  The colors are:  Peony Pink, Blush, and Tangerine. 

                                Here is the card I made for this first challenge.


This is Emma, a digi.  But I am having fun with these images as I find that I can change them to fit the image that I want on my card.  I wanted Emma to hold balloons, she actually had a bouquet of flowers.  So I left those off and drew in an arm and hand to hold the strings of a balloon. 
The card base is tangerine, on the bottom I cut a strip of DP from Gina K, Petals and Wings.  On top of that is a blush strip of CS cut with a scallop die. Emma's dress is blush as well as one of her balloons and the other is a peony pink. Wink of Stella makes them sparkle.  I used the balloons in place of the banner in the sketch.  This will probably be a birthday card for a little girl. 


Have a great weekend, we are doing a car rally tomorrow.  Tom is the driver, and I will be the navigator.  I am sure there will be a lot of yelling going on in our car.  But all in good fun.  I hope!
