Curtain Call Nature's Touch...

Hiya!

It's that time of the week again - another fab curtain call challenge! Here are this week's colours:


Now I would never have thought of putting these colours together, but that's why I love challenges - they make you think outside the box! This is what I ended up with:



I used a mix of DSP for this - Spiced Cider and Nouveu Chic. The main image is from A Touch of Nature and I stamped it on Confetti White with Basic Grey ink. I added a bit of colour using watercolour wonder crayons and an aqua painter. I created a 'poofy' flower by punching 5  scallop circles out of DSP then alternating the patterns, stacked them on top of each other and put a brad through the middle. I then scrunched the layers one by one and added a button and flat pearl from the Pretties Kit in the middle.

I used this week's Mojo Monday sketch for the layout and there were two little ribbon loops on the sketch so I included those using Rich Razzleberry polka dot ribbon. I added piercing around the main panel and the greeting was stamped on Sahara Sand and punched with the Word Window punch.

The Curtain Call Crew has samples to show you today, too, so make sure you stop by to see:
