Jellypark Challenge Number 6

Oh my goodness we are already on Challenge Number 6 over at the Jellypark Challenge Blog where does the time go! We had some gorgeous entries for our "Pass it on Challenge" plenty of very lucky people out there receiving some gorgeous cards and gifts.

Now on to the current challenge. It's a "design seed challenge", "what's that" I hear you exclaim, well, over on the Challenge Blog on the right hand side you will see something called Design Seed, it's a colour chart with some of the most glorious colour combinations ever. I had a terrible time picking my favourite but I finally settled on.
"Icy teal", aren't the colours just glorious!
I decided to make my own backing papers for this card so I pulled the picture into my design software and using the colour picker tool I was able to replicate the colours perfectly.
This is another new release image which is now available to buy in the Jellypark Store and it's perfect for this colour scheme.
I coloured the image using my promarkers, I love them soooo much I had no problem finding colour matches either. I used lots of gems in the background to, I lurve gems, can you tell :oO
Another Christmas card made yeah, that's 6 now lol.

I feel very fortunate to have a place on the Jellypark Design Team, it's a lovely place to be. I found out recently that the lovely Diane is leaving the team after this challenge. It has been a real pleasure being in a team with Diane. I am in awe of her cards and blog and will still be visiting regularly. :o)

Hope you like what you see and it inspires you in some way to take part in our challenge.
Happy Crafting.
