Ginny the giraffe

A Colour challenge is the order of the day at A Gem of Challenge, the colours choosen by Christine is Aqua, Pink and Lemon. I've used Pink Gems paper digis for the pink and lemon and the aqua is cardstock which I've embossed and used as a border.
Then I've used the sweet Ginny the giraffe with matching daisy flowers.
I may have mentioned in the week two of the hardest e-mails to write and one of them was to Pink Gem Designs, I have decided to step down from the DT, I have loved every minute of being on the team and had a great time playing with all the new wonderful designs but I'm finding it hard at the moment to get motivated to even make a card and I feel I'm not giving my best. I wish all the girls best and to keep up the wonderful work.

Grenouille Greetings said...

Sorry you are feeling a lack of motivation, Debby. It certainly isn't noticeable from your creations. This card is adorable. Perhaps I shouldn't say this but your pink looks decidedly lilac in this photo but whether or not it's pink or lilac - the colour combo is fabulous and your card a real treat! Hugs, Lesley

Sandra said...

Beautiful, fresh and fun. I always adore your designs Debby. I enjoy spotting the stash/tools you have used to create them.... I usually have them myself. We seem to have similar tastes.
I'm insired again. Thank you.
