Back about 20 years ago Peels were all the rage but they have fallen out of favour. I'm willing to bet however that you still have a small stash of them tucked away for emergencies. I have just a few for times like today.
There are some gorgeous colour themes in challenge land this month, blog land is going to be a riot of spring colour to see when you go blog hopping.
First one I've used is Less Is More #440 Pink Grey and Gold, an awesome combination thank you for this challenge. I already knew about Seize the Birthday #211 Squares and Addicted to CAS #194 Birthday and I knew I wanted to challenge myself to combine the three tastefully.
Two of the new AALL and Create stamps provided the bloom and the background. First the flower stamped in Adirondack pink. Coloured with Whisper Pens in different shades of pink, using a tip from Altenew to build up the colour. Flower masked and the background image made up of squares applied in grey. grey also used for the flower stem. Finally those peel offs in Gold for the Greeting.
All this pink is a bit out of my comfort zone but it is growing on me. It's good to test yourself.
yeah before computers I had to use peel off fonts for graphic design, such a pain. but you did a great job with them
ReplyDeleteTotally FAB-u-LOUS!
