Tonight I combined Lucy's first color challenge with Kazan's Sketch #40 from 2 Sketches 4 You.
I used my favorite kraft paper that comes in the bulk packages at Hobby Lobby ... I love the grocery-sack like texture of the paper and the slight variations in color.
I dug out my long-neglected Stampin' Up So many Scallops set for a birthday design. I used A Muse micro dot twinkle stickers for the candle flames. The polka dot embossing folderis from QuicKutz (love the look with textured card stock) & the String of Beads corner punch is EK Success.
And of course, it wouldn't be a Lucy inspired design if I didn't include a touch of white twine.
Happy Turkey Day ... hope yours is filled with love & laughter.
Love this one Steff. The texture on the pink is just right. I love this colour scheme Lucy chose.
