Challenge #11

Hey Peeps! It's my turn to host the next challenge. This challenge is about "outside the comfort zone." It can be anything you want (a card, template, etc) and just about any type of style, technique, color combo, or whatever.. --just as long as it's not something you wouldn't normally do.

I came up with this idea after I got my June release order. I absolutely *love* YOF: Roses, and love what all the PTI DT did with this set, especially the coloring with the Copics! I've got quite a few of them myself, but have always shyed away from them because I've been afraid to trying something new. Until now... I grabbed my markers and found out that it's not all that hard lol. :) Here's my card... (oh, I have to admit that my shading isn't anywhere near the pros, but for my first attempt, I think it's not half bad ;) )



I can't wait to see what everyone comes up! Thanks for playing!

Challenge #10

Hiya, my fellow peeps! :) It's my turn to host a challenge here on the Papertrey Peeps blog and I thought it would be fun to do another color challenge... The colors for this challenge were inspired by my friend Becky's PTI May Blog Hop card (though I substituted gray for the kraft/brown).  Purple is a color that I don't often show much love to, but the way she combines it with other colors really makes it seem so fresh and fun!

Challenge: To create a card or project using turquoise, chartreuse, purple, gray and white.  Can't wait to see what you come up with! :) (As always, there's no pressure or deadline to play along... Just have fun and join in when you can.)
