This card fits into 2 Challenges....both the colour one, which I have had to use colours as close as I could to the CC ones...the green is the correct one and the blues...well, they are close. I have to say though that this photo does not do them justice...I had to take it inside with natural light as it is so 'stinking hot' here, I didn't want to venture from air conditioning - where's my commitment I know...but...looking at the photo here I think I should clean the lens...and by the way, the background DP is actually olive green, looks more brown here...
The other catagory is the New Technique Challenge, with pleats....now this was a challenge as I have bad hands due to nerve damage and anything I tried to do turned out big and CHUNKY (like Gloria off Madagasca) and would have looked horrid - so this pleated circle is it!! What do you think - I am not totally convinced....but there are a few birthdays coming up and whoever gets this one will know that it is done with extra love and determination LOL!!!
A special thank you to the lovely Pat Smethers for this image an a lovely RAK which I am slowly working my way through - she sure 'packs in the luv!!! Thanks Pat, you're so big hearted!!
Thanks for looking...let me know what you think of the pleated circle...I can handle it...I would appreciate your opinion!!!

Good pleating and such a cool image. Like the little sparkle on the bedspread and shams.
