Five hours left...

lots of time. Not last minute at all. To be fair (hah!) I finished my card yesterday, and then spaced out forgetting to photograph it, so it's practically like I was done early. Ahem.

Anyhow.

Over at Our Creative Corner (where, omg, this week they picked my card as a winner! Squeal!) the challenge is to use yellow, kraft, and white. You may think to yourself, has Jessi ever done a colour challenge? And the answer to that would be pretty much a no.


But, I did it (as long as a teensy bit of orange isn't cheating tooooooo badly):

Supplies: patterned paper from Basic Grey "Piccadilly;"
kraft paper from JJ;
sentiment from Studio G; flower from Stampin' Up;
Colorbox Frost White pigment ink; white EP;
brads from Basic Grey
Since I didn't have enough of any of the three colours of brads to do all the flower centres, I mixed it up a little. OK, so as mentioned, you have a whole 5 hours to join in the challenge...and now I must get back to my mad preparations. Friday nights are always a scramble :)

xoxo,
Jessi

  3. Jessi, this is beautiful and a great take on the challenge. I would have loved to play in this one! I haven't worked with Yellows in awhile! Love a good challenge to pop me out of my norm (usually pinks and aqua ha)!

    Hugs!
