i had a bit of free time last night so i decided to see what i could come up with for the current paper smooches color challenge. i haven't particpated in a color challenge in a really, really long time so this was actually a bit of a challenge.
to create the card i started with the lightbulb image and built the rest of the card around it. color was added to the lightbulb with a pink panpastel - received a bunch of these for christmas and now i'm figuring it out how to use them with stamped images.
the rest of the sentiment is stamps from two other sets - i carefully inked just the word that i wanted to stamp.
here's a screen shot of the challenge if you want to give it a go. just click on the image and it'll take you to the challenge blog:
