This month our theme is three colours (plus white if desired).
I decided to draw inspiration from three of the the colours I often use in my scrapbook layouts...sometimes together but often not.
It was obligatory to have at least one shade of PINK in my colour combination so I chose Melon Mambo. The other two colours are aqua/turquoise and grey These were harder to pick but I settled on Tempting Turquoise and Basic Gray.
I decided to set myself an additional challenge of using as many new supplies as possible. Not necessarily just-released-new but not-yet-used new.
The Big Shot got quite the workout for this card. I tried the flip cards using the new Thinlits that everyone is making, I liked the idea of the extra flap and wanted a lovely girly card which, in addition to lots of pink and floral goodness, required glitter and bling.
The card isn't exactly how I envisioned it in my head but for a first attempt combined with my arthritis misbehaving, I'm satisified...more or less. Scroll down to the bottom of this post to see a clickable list of supplies used to make this card.
