Hello Poppy...

Hello!

It's time for another fab ColourQ combo, and this week we've got this pretty one to play with...

I wanted to use the fabulous Happy Watercolour set from the Spring/Summer catalogue (coming on the 28th of Jan!) as well as some new papers from the same catty. This is what I ended up with...

Now, it's a bit unusual for me to leave the lovely flower image uncoloured (cos I love to colour!) but when I stamped it and placed it on the rest of the pieces it looked so striking I decided to leave it that way - always good to step outside of your usual style eh?! There's a couple of other new bits and pieces on this (oh how I love the fact that demonstrators can preorder goodies... hee!). The buttons are new, as well as the sentiment from a set called Perfect Pennants. There's also a sneaky peek of a fabulous new punch coming called the Angled Tag Topper punch - sooo clever!

Here's the recipe:
Stamps: Hello Watercolour, Perfect Pennants
Ink: Pool Party, Stazon black, Basic Grey
Paper: Fresh Prints dsp, Whisper White, Basic Grey, Pool Party
Accessories: Island Indigo chevron ribbon, Silver buttons
Tools: Angled Tag Topper punch, Banners framelits

I used the Deconstructed Sketch for my layout...

Make sure you check out what the rest of the Royal Court have created this week - they always have a fabulous array of inspiration for you!

I also wanted to give you a heads-up that two of the designers on the Create with Connie and Mary Spring Edition have blog candy and beautiful projects on their blogs today - make sure you stop by and visit Melissa Davies and Nicole Tugrul and leave them some love... you may even win some goodies!
