Color Challenge

Tuesday sure rolls round quickly! Its time for the colour challenge over at the Outlawz again and this weeks inspirational picture was chosen by Ursula,

 
what an absolutley gorgeous picture - I adore sunsets and this landscape looks surreal; anyway the twist this week was something to do with travel.
 
Firstly, I found the colours really challenging this week and the twist had me with a completely blank mind, the more I thought about it the blanker I got! Then someone gave me a link to a free vintage digi site and I was browsing, like you do, and lo and behold the lights came on and this is what I came up with
 


I started with a black card, coloured the airways digi and the hibiscus flowers with Promarkers. I layered up the airways digi on some red and yellow card then stamped out the tiny postcard from Portobello Road and hand wrote and embossed the greeting. I set my digi cetrally on the card and tucked the postcard under the edge then added the flowers and voila!

I hope you like this weeks offering and hope to see soon!

Thanks for stopping by, I really appreciate you taking the time and I love to read your comments!
