Your Next Challenge

 

Good Morning Ladies,

I hope that you all had some of the sunshine that we were blessed with yesterday, I was pleased it was bright and dry as Lucy has had a 'project' that she has been wanting to get on with for a while.....    She wants to make a 'pallet bed' now I have said she could just have a new bed (not that there is anything wrong with the one she has)!  Sophie sourced everything Lucy needed including the pallets and fairy lights as an extra birthday gift, yesterday was the first day she was able to get outside and start sanding down the pallets, they were really good quality pallets so didn't need much work and Lucy really enjoyed getting started on her dream project,  here is a photo to give you an idea of what she is wanting.....

Although I don't think hers is as wide,  maybe a few inches either side of the mattress. I will keep you updated.! 

Your Next Challenge 

I thought that we would have a go at a Colour Challenge this week, I saw that Maria mentioned it last week and a few had mentioned it before that so here we go, now I thought that it might be better to do a range of colours rather than picking one particular colour.  So if you just look at the image above and you can pick out which ever colours you want, you don't have to use them all on one card. I also don't expect you to use those exact shades, just your interpretation of them, using colours that you have on hand.  I see some Distress Oxide shades in those colours....Twisted Citron, Tattered Rose, Worn Lipstick, or that new pink shade that he has just bought out, Kitsch Flamingo, or SU colours Lemon/Lime Twist, Grapefruit Grove or Peekaboo Peach, Magenta madness, Petal Pink and Very Vanilla.  

There are literally so many colour combinations to choose from, the colours are delicious and I have to mention how beautiful that jug of flowers are.

I really can't wait to see what you all create, which of the colours you decide to choose, there are a few of my favourite colours in there so I am looking forward to this challenge.

I will find some inspiration from our past challenges and post them on tomorrows blog.

Janet we didn't have 'Ash' on Ash Wednesday, is that a tradition that you follow? I have given up Chocolate for Lent, something that I never used to be fussed about eating but in recent months I found myself eating chocolate at any opportunity, I swear its something to do with Hormones!!  I would love to know if you have all given up anything too.

I hope that you all have a little sunshine ☀ in your lives today,

Sending love and hugs to all of you,

Sandra
