DU2DS Orange Yellow and Black / White



Had a ball with this one! DU2DS came up with this wierd combination of orange and yellow and whilst you might think Halloween with those colours I immediately knew I wanted to play with Sandra Dry's Rock Chick. Her leggings just cried out for orange and black don't you think. Sandra and Christine have a whole host of fabulous new digi stamps.

I stamped the background with a stampin up stamp and embossed it with neon orange embossing powder then layered prima Pulse Collection and Basic Grey Ambrosia papers, inked with SU ink. The image was coloured with promarkers then grunged with TH distress inks. The flower is a Kaiser Kraft stamp and it's all topped off with fluorescent orange knicker elastic (not off my knickers)

Those amazing bods on the DT have come up with some brilliant projects from Thankyou's to Witches to Lollipops, you've got to pop over for a peek! Hope it stimulates your creative juices to come join in.

Have Fun
x Michelle

I love the colours of this Michelle. That orange is wicked!! I think a pair of knickers in that colour would be great!! I've had a closer look at that flower to see how you've done it, it's lovely and the grungy background papers are fab.
I'd love to come to Malham but it's half term so I have my little helper at home all week!! You'll be thinking I'm doing everything to avoid you-but it's so not true!! I'd love to chat with you about your gorgeous creations, even if it's just for coffee sometime!
Have a lovely weekend.
Hugs

I can really tell you had fun with this colour combo. Perfect card for Rock Chix everywhere. Had to giggle when you mentioned knicker elastic. I wonder if we should set a challenge for the most unusual item on a card?
Have a great weekend.
