We are having a fun little challenge over on the Power Poppy Blog...
Today the design team is creating a card based on the colors of their country. Of course mine is Red, White and Blue as you can see. I chose the Power Poppy set called Countryside Bouquet. It is a newly released set that is digital. I used Julie's tutorial to change to colors on my flowers and the sentiment. The tutorial is fabulous and easy and can be found HERE...what a bummer that I was out of ink on my printer so the red is not the color I wanted but the possibilities are endless.
For all the info about the Patriotic challenge check out the Power Poppy Blog today. Marcy is offering up some free digital sentiments and here are a sneak at the rules:
No matter where you live, use your country's colors as your theme! Marcy is going to offer up a free digi sentiment for those that want to use it. And here's how the challenge will work:
1 point for all Power Poppy entries
2 points if you use patriotic colors and a power poppy stamp
3 points if you use patriotic colors, a power poppy stamp and the freebie digi sentiment

ReplyDeleteDawn, you have a special eye for colours! I absolutely gorgeous. I LOVE the way you did the center of the flowers. I love red, white and blue together and that big gorgeous ribbon just ties it all in that is for sure! BEAUTY card Dawn!
ReplyDeleteDawn that is cool, the red flowers with blue centers. I have not tired this yet and need too. The gingham bow is perfect. Happy 4th of July girlie!
ReplyDeleteOh, WOW! I LOVE this card! I would never have thought of the blue centers and they just go perfectly with that gorgeous bow! I'll have to try the color tutorial! HAPPY 4th !!!!
ReplyDeleteWOW Dawn, I knew you’d do something awesome! Gorgeous creation!
ReplyDeleteOh, Dawn, this is gorgeous! Perfect for today, Fourth of July! I have to say I had "sentiment envy" until I read on that there are special free digis for Freedom Ring! Beautiful coloring, and I love that you changed the image lines! Another beauty, sweet friend! Happy Fourth...and hugs!
ReplyDeleteBOOM! This is simple, powerful, and American all the way! Love it, Dawn! Cropping in tight from the side and showcasing part of the bouquet is really a neat way to approach this image, especially since there's so much detail to it. Thank you for sharing your bow-bedecked beauty! Happy 4th!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card Dawn, lovely colours, and loving your ribbon.
