I did a challenge

The challenge this week on the Sarah Kay blog http://sarahkaychallenges.blogspot.com is purple and green.

Ok I didn't do it for the challenge this week , because I already had it done, but I said what the heck, the colors are right
so if it counts, here is my first challenge.


The background pp is from DCWV paper pack called The Far East Stack. Sorry I've had it so long I forget where i bought it.

I cut out a Large circle from doublesided cs I got at Micheals last summer, cut it in half, then hand stitched the reverse sides
down with this awesome multicolored plastic thread My friend Dianne at http://magpiesenvy.blogspot.com bought me a while ago.
and added Taylor's tiny twinkles http://tayloredexpressions.com

I then took some silk flowers I had and dyed them green and purple, and added a die chip dot.
Image was water colored then mounted to my punched out ovals.
Oh yes, the larger oval was done with the swiss dots cuttlebug folder


Have a wonderful Sunday all
