C4C149, Catered Crop Happy Birthday....

Howdy friends!

Hope you are enjoying your weekend??? Today is a *ME* kind of day....I have a  hair appointment and I think I'll go for a manicure & pedicure after!!!

If you have some down time, how about playing some challenges with us??? I'm still hosting the August Crazy 4 Challenges and today I have a fun one....it might be a little tricky for some....my challenge to you this week is, to create A CARD THAT IS WHITE ON WHITE....ONLY YOUR IMAGE CAN HAVE A SPLASH OF COLOR!  I can't wait to see your ideas!!!



My card is featuring the gorgeous newly released Flourishes Garden Picks Set. I inked the image in Memento Tuxedo Black and colored the flower image with there Copic Markers ~ Y00, Y02, Y08, Y21, YG11, YG13, G24, R00, R02, R04, R22 and Colorless Blender. Next I added some double piercing around the second layer of Flourishes Classic White CS. The third layer was embossed with the PTI Canvas/Linen Impression Folder. Next is the Doily, along with the main image, White Ribbon, Button & White Floss. To finish it all off I added the Kaiser Pearls...voila!

The C4C149 also goes hand in hand with the Catered Crop Recipe Swap that is still going strong for another week!!! Make sure check out all the entries there as well!!! The Catered Crop team will show off all of their ideas tomorrow...make sure to check them out!!!


My color inspiration for my main image is from The Play Date Cafe #144 and the layout is from the Deconstructed Sketch #64.....




Thank you so much for swinging by today....and I hope we have inspired you to play along!!!

                                                           Hugs, ~Silke~
