Color Dare Challenge #608

 



This picture shows my make for the




Do pop over to the Color Dare Challenge and take a look at my teamies' makes.

This picture shows the challenge - 


I started with neutral card blank matting it with black. I then added a piece of embossed 'honey butter' card - made using an embossing folder with ink inside.
The patterned paper I used was from Bee Arty making the left hand side and first circle. 
On top of that circle I added a black one and then a sentiment also from a Bee Arty paper pack.
My colours have been chosen from all but the Royal.


Hope you will join the Color Dare Challenge...


Happy Crafting!

WOYWW #787

             

It is Wednesday so I am linking to WOYWW. By now I expect that you know that Julia decided to bow out - after 15 years! - so the Stamping Ground is no longer the place to link.

Instead go to Sarah's blog at Sarah's craft shed

Follow the link to find out more about What's on Your Work Desk Wednesday and maybe join in... This is my post for WOYWW #787

I received another lovely 15th Anniversary card and ATC... from Kelly!


Here is my work table today:


On my desk easel is the journal page I have made as a Gecko Galz inspiration.

I started on Week 5 (Ink):

I am on to castle today...

I am also trying to join in with JunkJournalJuly. Here is my concertina journal and I hope to share the start of the pages next week.



I have two sets of ATCs that I just organised and are finally all with the recipients - the theme is 3 of a Kind.



Anyway that's all from me today. Hope to visit you all later...when we have returned Ollie home...





Happy WOYWW!
