DYSU #30 Online July 28th "Orange, Yellow and Brown"



Hola chicas,

Hoy mi entrada va a ser en ingles porque estoy un poco corta de tiempo así que pido mis disculpas.

Hi,

It’s another Thursday which means a new Challenge here at Do You Stack Up?.  Today is all about Yellow Orange and brown.  Create any project using these colors and link it to our blog.

Our great sponsor’s for this week challenge are:

Gingerloft

Stitchy Bear

Strech 'n Bubbles


I worked with a great image from Gingerloft named Fishing Kids.  I love so much this image because while I was debating on what to do with it I instantly remembered a quote from Ella Fitzgerald. 


 And it’s because reaching our dreams is like going fishing.  You have to make your part with the bait but then sit still, prevail and let God, nature and your surroundings do the rest.  And while in this process what better than to have a friend or family (or both) by your side fishing for their own dreams but at the same time waiting with you in the process?

For this card I used my Copics for the dresses and sentiment.  Flower soft and polymer clay flowers for the hats.  For the background I used my distress inks.




Hope you like it as much as I do.  See you next week!!
