A great new challenge blog launched today. Colour Create will challenge you each week to make a card using different colour combinations. This week it is pink, green and brown. This BG Eva paper has been sitting in my drawer for a while now so I thought it was the perfect opportunity to combine the CC challenge with the BG challenge which this week is a sketch.

This is 6 x 6 card which is cut from Bazzil cardstock (bought from Crafty Obsessions who are very reasonably priced). Tilda is coloured with distress inks and I cut a nesties frame and mounted it on top of a brown embossed panel. The flourish is my new Sissix die and the flowers are a Quickutz die. I've added some stickles to the flower centres and used my glitter pen on Tilda's hair bows. The sentiment has been hung from the flourish with some knotted jewellery thread.

Sharon - this is absolutely adorable - I love it! It's a brilliant take on Martine's sketch at BG and perfect colours for Colour Create. Tilda is gorgeous and beautifully coloured.
Your flower 'vine' is great and I like that you've hung your sentiment from it.
Thanks for joining us at Basic Grey and Colour Create.
