Colour Create 21 - Pistachio green, aqua & powder pink

This week's challenge at Colour Create has been chosen by our lovely Juliet and I think she has picked a perfect colour combo, it's so pretty! Sadly, we are actually saying goodbye to Juliet, who has decided to take a break from crafting for a while as she has just returned to work. We will miss her beautiful creations so much and hope to see more from her in the not-too-distant future ;o)

So, onto the details then:

Here is a picture to help you out a bit..........


And now for the optional extra...... a nice easy one this week which is to use buttons somewhere in your creation. Please remember that this isn't compulsory though and that you may combine our challenge with any other you feel like entering ;o)

******************

What fabulous colours we had to work with this week. I'm loving my new Anyas - they are such a delight to colour and I used Derwent pastels for this one. The papers are various downloads, the flowers and leaves a mixture and the sentiment Inkadinkado. Why did I add a dragonfly - I really don't know (just in that mood!!) - it needed something down there but I'm sure I could have thought of something better -lol. The lace also was an afterthought so I had to seal the ends with Glossy accents and there we have it. Go check the other DT's work - what fabulous creations they have come up with yet again.



*****************

I am so busy at the moment trying to co-ordinate my move to Germany and my grandson's move to his new house I'm getting further and further behind in my blogging but I think it is past time I posted a few awards (Guilt - has taken over!!!) I'm not passing them on as I think by now everyone has them - if you haven't and you would like - please, please help yourself - with my love.

I received these awards from my favourite Norwegian blogger Hanna, who is 12 years old and produces the most amazing cards. Pop along and have yourselves a look......you'll be "Gobsmacked" believe me. Thanks Hanna for being so sweet as to think of me.
