Hello,
Welcome to Colour Hues Challenge #99, where our wonderful hostess, Marcia, invites us to use hues of Pink and Aqua for the next two weeks. This combination is a lovely non-traditional palette for Christmas, as well as a variety of other occasions.
Along with a new challenge, we're also delighted to welcome a new member to the Design Team: sweet and talented Bonnie. So thrilled to have her on board!
Teresa is joining us as our Guest Designer for this challenge; her card is sure to bring you a smile.
When Pinkfresh Studio launched their Christmas release in July, I confess to exercising little restraint! The Radiating Snowflake, Magical Holiday holly and berries, Poinsettia Frames, Festive Grid...they all joined my collection, as did this sweet Holiday Bicycle. It's pretty, it's whimsical, it's fun, it's festive...and it looks fabulous in a variety of colours, especially pink and aqua. I'm pleased with the way this turned out; I hope you are, too.
Please drop by the main blog to see the wonderful inspiration from our Guest Designer and the rest of my fabulous team. Then, join us in the gallery with your take on Pink and Aqua.
The challenge will be open until November 29th @ 9:00 am EDT.
The winners will be posted an hour before our next challenge and the overall
winner will have the opportunity to be a future Guest Designer.
Thank you for dropping by!
I love EVERYTHING about this delightful holiday card! My NBUS box is so filled, I passed up this wonderful set, but it's going on my wish list for sure! Love those snowflake spokes on the bike, that great cover plate, and your fab coloring.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful Christmas bicycle with the snowflake wheels, Carol! The background is just as fun and I can see why you couldn't restrain from buying! These colors make it even more fun! Thanks for the warm welcome and I look forward to getting to know all of you better.

ReplyDeleteIf it were not for the pink and blue I would have thought this a great card for Andy! lol Absolutely delightful and I love how many roducts you used for this card. So fun!
ReplyDeleteI absolutely LOVE this card Carol and yes, the PFS Christmas release was a hard one to resist and most of it is on my Christmas wish list! I love the background...it says Christmas without taking away from that delightful bicycle and the flowers and gifts! And totally makes my color choices SHINE! Hugs. :0)
ReplyDeleteYou have the best variety of supplies, Carol! I absolutely adore this card! The background alone is wonderful and then all the extra images colored so perfectly make it a magical delight! Well done!
ReplyDeleteI talked myself out of that background plate but now you've gone and done it. LOL!! This is so fun. Love the idea of a bike for a holiday card. We could actually do that here in Florida. *wink*
ReplyDeleteCarol, I am totally smitten with your card! That bicycle! Such a sweet design with lots of interesting elements, it looks amazing in the challenge colors. I think your investment was worth every penny to create this beautiful card!
