The challenge at Colour Create is to make a card using "peach and aqua". There is an extra option available which you can use if you wish, although this isn't compulsory. This week's option is 'DIY flowers', which means not using any pre made, bought flowers on your cards and projects.
Did i have a job with this card! ... spent most of the morning whilst my lunch was cooking looking for peach and aqua paper ... not easy! After trawling through all my papers on the hard-drive i did manage to find some to fit the bill.
I also combined this challenge with Sketch #37 from Sketch Saturday a fab sketch designed by Jeanette and sponsored by Whimsy Stamps this week .
CS ~ stash, DP's ~ a mixture of Pink Petticoat and Summer Driggs, image ~ Sarah Kay coloured with WM's, flowers made using smallest Nestie die and the Cuttlebug and by following the tutorial here, button and raffia ~ stash, sewing done on machine and gems ~ stash.Thought i would add this photo taken last night of Ellie before she went out to a "pimps and ho's" party. Obviously, she doesn't normally go out dressed like this lol!
She makes me absolutely sick ... i wish i was this confident, young and gorgeous! I'm bound to say it i know cos she's mine. 
Luvly card & colours :o)x
