Colour Challenge

This week's colour challenge at the Play Date Cafe is white/black/striking blue-turquoise/retro-redI love the colour combination. My card is not quite retro but represents a slightly older more vintagey era

The fantastic image is from The Graphics Fairy. I slightly altered the image by altering the backgorund colour and the colour of the 'evening wrap'. Then for the first time ever I managed to print the image onto thicker handmade paper which removes the sharpness from the image and gives it more of a soft and subtle feel. Petra.

    Thanks for your comment on my blog Petra - yours is actually one of my favourite entries for this challenge, I love the combination of distressed stuff with formal and pretty stuff.
