Some days, it's just a fight to get anything done in the ol' craft room. Seriously, it took me over an hour to get today's card made; I started something completely different, played around with it a bit, and even glued something down before I trashed the whole thing and started over with just the Tangerine Tango balloon I had cut out. And then finally I got to here:
Which I kinda like. I picked some bright colors that I thought would go well with Tangerine Tango (Cucumber Crush and Bermuda Bay) and then put all of 'em on a black card base to make it all pop. For the streamers, since this is a photopolymer set I was able to scrunch it up a bit when I did the Bermuda Bay one so it doesn't look like an exact replica of the Cucumber Crush one.
This week's Global Design Project challenge is to party like it's 1999:
Maybe I should do a purple card in honor of Prince. Or I could just jam to the song when I go back down to my craft room. (Fun fact: when I was six years old, my favorite song in the world was Raspberry Beret. I'm sure that my parents thought it was hilarious that I had No Clue what Prince was singing about, I just liked the beat.) I'm hoping that the scrapbook pages I plan to work on next are a bit less hassle. And you know what? Those ARE going to be purple!
Cheers, y'all!
