Well hello and welcome to week 3 0f my Guest Designer roll over at Just Us Girls. This week we have a colour challenge for you – it’s all about hot pink, red and grey.
I’ve been having fun lately with sponging and stencils, so thought this technique was good for this colour challenge. I used my Altenew layered dahlia stencil set with Catherine Pooler Designs ink in Rose Petals and Rouge on a grey card panel. The sentiment is from Taylored Expressions ‘Simply Strips’. As you can see, my pink and red are from the darker more muted spectrum, but I do like the look on the grey base.
Check out the Just Us Girls challenge blog for links to the other fabulous projects from the DT and come join in our fun and share your project by 11am Friday 23rd August(Melbourne time) or 9pm Thursday 22nd August (US Eastern Standard time) .
Thanks for looking and have a great day.

Tx Mac – I usually use white cardstock but have seen some great cards on a darker base so gave it a go.
