This is a new one for me...I have two posts for today. Whew! I've been very busy!
This is my first post as a Guest Designer for the ABC Challenges. I was so honored when Julie Price asked me to come on board for a few months.
If you're looking for my Magnolia-licious Post, "Here Comes Summer" please click here to link to the post.
The challenge for this fortnight is "O" is for Orange. I must admit that I had to scramble for this challenge as I don't usually use the color orange, but I dug deeeeep into my stash and found a small amount of orange to use on my card.
I have used a Saturated Canary image called Baby Girl. I paper pieced the dress and used the complimentary color of blue to highlight really make her pop!
Here is the card front...
Here is a close up of the baby...
A couple of side views...
I only had enough dp to do one inside panel, so I've not shown any photos of the inside.
We would love for you to come on over to the blog and show us your "O" if for Orange creation.
Blessings and Hugs,
Barb
