Dawn McVey Color Challenge


UPDATE: I received honorable mention for this project in the Guest Star Stamper June contest at Papertrey Ink...check it out here. I'm so thrilled!!
I'm on a roll with these Timeless Templates from Lauren Meader! For me, they seem to get easier the more I do them;) Dawn McVey is having a color challenge this week...so I made a lunch pail in her color scheme. I have to say, this color scheme really stumped me at first. I ended up with something that I really like! It feels good to go out of the comfort zone. I played around with differnt inks and glitters that I had available. I used the Palette pink to stamp on the bitty dots paper and it gave a wonderful soft look. The colors are a little more vibrant IRL...took the photos outside and the sun was VERY bright! Click on the picture to get a more detailed view. TFL!

Let's Do Lunch

This little cutie is made from the Let's Do Lunch Timeless Template by Lauren Meader. She is hosting a challenge on her blog to use one of her Timeless Templates and use the color purple or butterflies! I love both! I'm thinking of what to put inside this little lunch pail. Perfect for any type of gift giving...including birthdays!!!
