Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge 99

Just a quick one.
Here is what I have come up with for the Sweet Sunday Sketch.

It isn't how it was intended to turn out but I didn't have time to fix it because I have 2 games of netball tonight and better go get myself and the kids organised!

Paper Rose Tutorial

Here is how I made the rose on my Peach Parfait Flower Card

1. Start with a scrap of paper (approx 4x4inches) and starting from the outside cut a spiral into the middle.

2. Next, starting from the centre tightly roll the paper over and over until you reach the end (loosen a little towards the end.)

3. Use a little snail adhesive to secure the end.

4.  This is how your flower will now look

5. Turn your flower over and liberally apply some PVA glue to secure the rose "petals" in place

6. Once glue is dry, distress the outer layers of your rose until you are happy with the finished product.

Inkspirations Color Challenge #52

Ok, sooo being new to this whole blog challenge thing (this is my 2nd), I was sitting at my desk sipping on my glass of wine thinking..."what on earth am I going to do with these colors??" I had run out of Peach Parfait card, because it would have to be my fav color at the moment! so I knew that the Peach Parfait element of my card was going to have to be stamped. I pulled out my fav stamp set at the moment, "Elements of Style" and a piece of whisper white card and stamped and colored away!! The rest of the card just fell into place from there!

I hope you like!
