Love to Scrap! Challenge Blog - #42 Say It In Color!!

Happy Monday crafty bloggers!!  I hope you are ready for another challenge at Love to Scrap! Challenge Blog.  For the next 2 weeks we want see sentiments that are not in black, but put them in color.  I know it can be a challenge for some, but give it a try.

We have 2 fabulous sponsors for this challenge.

The winner for Stitchy Bears Digi Outlet will win a $10 gift certificate.

The winner for Sweet Stamps will win a $10 gift certificate as well.

The image In Her Easter Bonnet Silhouette 6005 was stamped for my use for this challenge.  I went ahead and colored the little bit of white there was on this image with water color and regular color pencils.  I thought pearls would help dress up her hat too.  I didn't want to overdo the image.  Since it was a victorian/vintage style image, I put some beautiful metal corner pieces in the corner.  Some fancy ribbon was needed as well.  

I had a couple of womanly quotes and settled on this one from Unity Stamps called A Woman of Strength.  It took a couple of different inks to decided which looked okay with the paper I already choosen.  Looking kinda plain, I added a satin ribbon behind the sentiment (it's really not brown, but golden).

Here's the inside.

thanks for looking and reading :o)
