TSG94 Nothing but love...



This week’s challenge is brought to you by this month’s Trendy of the Week, Megan at There She Goes. She wants us to create a card using the following colors: Pink, Kraft, and Ivory. I've been a long time fan of Megan's so when I found out she was going to be one of our "Trendies" I was super excited! Her style is amazing and each time I visit her blog, I'm inspired!!  I hope that with this color comb you'll be inspired too!


As soon as I saw the color combo, I thought vintage or at least vintage looking. I've had this MME DP for quite some time and let's just say I've been hoarding it! (I'm trying to find more of this polkadot pattern and it hasn't been easy).  This is the first time that I've had the opportunity to use a newer release from There She Goes  called "Love" which was illustrated by our amazing leader, Jessica. Let's just say that this card went through a few transformations and this is the final result.  I've loosely used this week's Mojo Monday challenge but rather than using the circle element I decided to use the rhinestone swirls gone wild...  and I've placed the main image of Love a bit lower down as it seemed to fit the card much better this way.  I also made this card for Jeanie Whitmer's That's Krafty Thursday challenge which is to use Kraft on a card. 


Want to play along with the Trendsetters this week?  Here's how...


To be eligible for the giveaway, you are to create a card that utilizes the previously mentioned color combo, and then come back to the TSG Blog to add your name and a link to your project in the InLinkz that is located at the bottom of this challenge post.
