A Sunny Challenge!
Hi Guys
Today I am back with a Sunny Challenge but earlier than usual.
This isn't because they have put the challenge up earlier, It is because I have known what the challenge is for a few weeks now, Do you remember me winning the challenge with the twisted easel card? Well winning that challenge gave me the fabulous opportunity to be a Weekly Guest Designer on the Sunny Challenges and Creations blog, I accepted this with pleasure!
This weeks challenge is to use the above sketch and the theme "Birthdays".
At first when I saw the sketch I wanted to create a bright, fun and happy birthday card, with the two rectangles being the focus. I did a warm up card and wasn't happy with the direction I was going in. So I decided to change it up, with the two rectangles still being the focus.
Here is the end result:
As you can see it is quite different from what I was first thinking, and I love it!!
Cardstock:
Naturals Ivory, Watercolor Paper, Everyday Enchantment DSP (Retired), Lucky Limeade
Ink: Peach Parfait, Lucky Limeade, Early Espresso, Peach Parfait Ink Refill, Daffodil Delight Ink Refill, Early Espresso Marker, Lucky Limeade Marker, Pumpkin Pie Marker, Versamark, Sahara Sand
Stamp Sets:
Fifth Avenue Floral, Fresh Vintage (Retired)
Other:
Sponges, 1 3/4" Scallop Circle punch, Paper Trimmer, Simply Scored, Paper Piercer, White Embossing Powder, Heat Tool, Aqua Painter, Blossom Petals punch
Don't you just love the lily? I used the fool proof water colouring technique on this Lily and it worked wonders! I'll post a tutorial on this very soon!

Wow, Kathryn - this card is a beauty!! I just LOVE the way you've coloured the lily (I eagerly await your tutorial!). Gorgeous card, and congrats on being a Guest Designer this week!
