Let's Ink It Up Challenge 1 DT Project - Anything Goes .....



It's time for the first challenge over at Let's Ink It Up and I can now let you know that the challenge is an Anything Goes one, but the twist to this challenge is that you must use the colour Yellow somewhere on your project.  You can make anything you want , it doesn't need to be a card. 

Our sponsor for this challenge is Scrapbook Boutique and they are offering the winner a $20 voucher.


Scrapbook Boutique sells a wide variety of papercrafting supplies, including many fab rubber stamps, inks, papers, copics, cuttlebug, to name a few. Just about anything you need to finish that fab creation of yours. Why not head on over to Scrapbook Boutique and check it out, I am sure you won't leave without spending some money.

It's not only the first challenge it's my first DT project too.  This was not an easy challenge for me as I don't normally use yellow on my projects, so I hope you like it.



I have used lots of my favourite products on this card.  My favourite stamp and papers by Magnolia and paper flowers and lots of glitter.
I have stamped Princess Tilda by Magnolia with tuxedo black memento ink and coloured her in with Copics.  I added some crystal Glamour Dust to the image and cut it out.  The papers I have used are by Magnolia and I have distressed the edges with Antique Linen Distress Ink and my Tim Holtz distressing tool.  I have added glitter glue to the edges of the paper.  I added flowers which have also been inked with Antique Linen Distress Ink and highlighted with glitter glue.  I added some string pearls to the small floral decoration at the top.  The copics used are: E0000, E000, E00, E50, E51, E53, E55, R11, Y000, Y00, Y02.


I'm really pleased with the way the card has turned out and hope it provides you with some inspiration for this challenge.  The rest of the DT have some inspirational projects too, why not pop over and visit their blogs - links in my sidebar.


Pop on over to Let's Ink It Up and join in with our first challenge.


I would also like to enter this card into the DT call over at Southern Girls Challenge which ends on 27th August, so there's still time to enter.
