Today there is a new challenge over on the Tuesday Morning Sketches blog, and its to follow this great sketch by Melissa. I was delighted to win their judged challenge last week and was really inspired to make this card as this weeks featured stamper. What an honour! :)
I used a fabulous image called 'Bossy' from Mo's Digital Pencil. I love these images and seem to smile the entire time I am crafting with them. The challenge on Mo's DP2 blog this week is 'Orange, Yellow & Red'.
Now, anyone who knows me knows that Orange annoys me ;) Not the fruit, or the chocolate (obviously) just the colour. I had to dig really deep in my stash to find anything orange - it was all buried! I coloured this image with pro-markers and printed my own sentiment. I used a sheet of paper from a free stack of MME, and the rest is assorted kanban patterned card. The flowers, ribbon and charm were also from old stash.
I will be entering this card in the following competitions:
Mos Digital Pencil - Orange, Red, Yellow
Fab n' Funky - Digital stamping
Crafty Creations - Heat it up - I think this fits in with warm, hot and spicy.
Paperplay challenge - Layer it up
Do You Stack Up - Patterns - I have 3 different DP/Patterned papers and card on this project. 2nd entry
Crafty Catz - Flowers
Crafts 4 Eternity - Polka Dots
Cutie Stampers - Stripes
Totally Gorjuss - Anything Goes

Pear Tree Designs - Flowers
Ooh La La - 3 of a Kind - 3 bunches of flowers
One Stitch at a Time - Photo Inspiration - Orange, gold, green
Paper Playtime - Digi Monday - Anything Goes

Thanks so much for looking, and good luck to everyone in these challenges.

Hi Alison. Beautiful card. Love the orange theme. Great layout and love your sentiment, it made me laugh. It suits the image so well. Good luck for all those challenges you have entered. Donna
Great coloring job! I am not a big fan of orange either, but I love this!
Just as well we're not the same isn't it? I love this, I have no idea why but maybe I like orange. Love your sentiment with this - & the way you've used the spots & stripes is quite glorious - I like how the scallops pick up on the circle shape.
