Corrosive Challenge #197 - Pretty Pastels


Hello everyone.  It is time for another Corrosive Challenges challenge...Pretty Pastels.  This sucker was really difficult for me.  I am not a pastel fan. I love deep, rich color.  My little sweet baby Sydney headed up to the studio to give me support while I tried to struggle through this one.  Happily, I survived and am pretty pleased with the result.

Our sponsor this time around is:


I colored with Copics and used Stampin Up paper, McGill punch, Sizzix oval die, Anna Griffin embossing folder & gems.  I am pooped so this is going to be a short post.  Please head over to Corrosive Challenges and check out what the rest of the design team created for your inspiration. 

Challenges entered:

Creative Card #59 - Spring
Penny's Paper-Crafty #172 - Flower power
Rhed and Rosie's #30 - Anything goes
Delightful - Use an egg or oval shape
Sweet Stampin' - Flowers
Craftyhazelnut's - Use patterned paper
My Mum's Craft Shop #16 - Anything goes
Stamp and Create - Spring flowers
Stamping Sensations - Use dies and/or punches
The Crafty Blogger - Die cuts or embossing

Thanks so much for stopping by and have a great day.

    So very cute! I love the 3 oval dies in the middle. I'll have to try that too.

    The struggle was worth it. Outstanding card and coloring of the image. You should use pastels more often.

    I would not have guessed that you struggled using pastel. The card is beautiful and the pastels are really gorgeous.
