TSG48 - It's A List!

Monday, March 29, 2010

Good Morning!

Today's There She Goes challenge is one that will test your ability to resist! It's all about lists and I'm soooo into that! I love lists! It gets things out of my mind and on paper. Anyway, today's There She Goes challenge is a list of things that you must include on your card or project. Those things are:

* 3 different colors
* 2 different designer papers
* 1 button
* 1 Ribbon
* No other embellishments

I found this challenge to be an easy one. Only a ribbon and button for an embellishment....easy peesy!! Those are my embellishments of choice!

I used the brand new Poppies set that was released this past Saturday and some of that yummy Kioshi paper from Basic Grey. Beautiful stuff that paper, but I am finding it really hard to work with. However, I didn't have a problem coloring up the poppies! They're so bold and graphic, I love them! I borrowed this week's Sweet Sunday Sketch #62 for this layout because of it's simplicity.

I used a combination of SU's Regal Rose, then Ruby Red and finally a tiny bit of Cranberry Crisp in the shadows. Then the poppy seeds were colored with a base of Certain Celery, then Buckaroo Blue and a tiny bit of Going Gray over the top to keep the grayish-blue color in tact.

If you'd like to play along with us, just create your card or project and add your name and a link to it on the TSG blog post for this challenge. Then one random person will win a $5 gift certificate to the There She Goes store!

Sorry for the short post today. I'm writing this after midnight and need to get some serious sleep tonight. :) Thanks so much for stopping by and saying hello.
