Christmas In July Bugaboo Day 7

Wow I made it the last day and just in the nick of time too.

I must say it has been a challenge getting them all done but I have enjoyed it and some of them has really pushed me out of my Comfort zone as Mojo was starting to head for the hills.

Well today is a colour challenge and here is the swatch that we have to work from

Now I have picked out the Purple as my main colour and used one of their shoes for this card.

Well use girlies like Christmas shoes dont we.

Image coloured with promarkers

washie tape for the sentiment

Ribbon from a local shop

Pearls for the corners

Flowers as from Live & Love
