Just Us Girls Challenge #528 - Color Week

It's my turn to Host this week's challenge.  I see pretty cards ahead with these Spring time colors.

I created a card that was not at all what I planned in my mind.  That said, I'm still ok with the end result.

 I started out with a paper color paper leaf cut out.  I [think] I got this from Loll Thompson like forever ago, and I am finally using it.  I spread some distress ink, sprayed it with water, and laid the die cut into it.  I love how it turned out! 

I used some washi tape [hint of blue stripes] and cut out a circle.  My Hello is from Technique Tuesday, that I double layered with a hint of black card stock for a shadow effect.

Your turn!  I hope you come on over to the Just Us Girls Challenge #528 and play along.  I'm looking forward to seeing these colors in action.


Thanks for stopping by~

This is very inspiring Vicki. I love the background circle, with its stripes of pattern and I adore the variegated look of your die cut leaf. Vicky x
