{DT Project Tammy's Scrapin Corner: Challenge #37}
Ran another 10km road race in Pretoria, South Africa on Saturday. It was beautiful weather and the race itself was well organised. The race was advertised as flat and fast, but a flat course is never fast for me as the same muscles are working on a flat, whereas with a more hilly course, one set of muscles rest while going up and vice versa.
This week our theme for Challenge #37 at Tammy's Scrapin Corner is Thanksgiving or Fall. I used the Flower Basket image from Scrappers Delight. You can find it here. Love this scenic image.
This week our theme for Challenge #37 at Tammy's Scrapin Corner is Thanksgiving or Fall. I used the Flower Basket image from Scrappers Delight. You can find it here. Love this scenic image.
No surprise - its another centre stepper card, the image was printed on cream cardstock, fussy cut and then coloured with H2O's and dry chalks. For me, this was a very difficult image to colour and I am not totally happy with my colouring job. The flowers and buttons are from my stash. The design papers are from Paperloft the Funkysaurus range. The sentiment is from Create with TLC. I tried to make it kind of a vintage creation using the old crocheted tablecloth underneath the card for the photos.
I really do hope you will play along with our Thanksgiving or Fall challenge this week at Tammy's Scrapin Corner.
