This week, while I'm away I still have lots planned for you. I'm your TSG girl of the week on the There She Goes Blog so I have some cute projects to show you. It all starts today with a pretty color challenge I have for you. I had these pretty ribbons stored in my ribbon holder and I looked at the line of them one day and thought, "hmm, this looks like it might be a nice combo!"
I pulled out the beautiful Hibiscus set illustrated by Torico and created a tropical arrangement a little like a Hawaiian shirt design...and really focussing on the ribbon that was my inspiration.
I've woven the ribbons back and forth in a basketweave style and then placed the Copic colored flowers on top. I laid this all on a very pretty Rectangle Lattice Nestabilities shape on top of some more woven ribbon.
Then as I was looking through my stash of embellishments I found the perfect brads to add to the design with that soft yellow and blue and the brown background. Then I added some pretty rhinestone swirls to finish it off.
To be eligible for the giveaway, you are to create a card that uses the colors provided, and then come back to the TSG Blog to add your name and a link to your project in the InLinkz that is located at the bottom of this challenge post. This challenge is open until the winner has been announced on the following Monday (July 25). The winner will get a $5 gift certificate to use in the TSG Web store!
