Some Odd Girl Challenge...Complimentary Colour Combo...You're Pure Sunshine!

Photobucket
Hey stampin' friends! Yay! It's the weekend and that means crafty time for me! I discovered a new....well, new to me, digi stamp line, that I just think is soooooo super cute! I was over at Amy's gorgeous blog, A Thousand Sheets of Paper, drooling over all her amazing creations (love her cards to bits) when I saw her some Odd Girl cards and I fell in serious looovvveee!!!! These Odd girls and boys are just soooooo darn CUTE...eeekkk! Well, I had to get me some!  Then I decided to play along with the challenge that they have over at the Some Odd Girl blog. The challenge is to use two complimentary colours from the colour wheel. 

So, for my card I printed out this sweetie, Beach Babe Kaylee! I coloured her up with my Copics and gave her a bronzed tan. I used my BasicGrey Sweet Threads 6x6 paper pad cuz it has one of my fave complimentary colour combos, lime green and hot pink! I left the image in the Nestie die and inked with Worn Lipstick Distress ink. I added a few Prima flowers with Sweet Threads painted brads in the centers and a little pink bling. I also used my Open Bracket Die-namics border die and the sentiment is from the MFT Pure Innocence Make a Splash set.

I thought Kaylee would look good sporting some mirrored sunglasses so I added Stix2 foil to her glasses.

Here is the inside of the card....this is another MFT Pure Innocence sentiment. 

Well, thanks so much for stopping by and havin' a wee peek at my Odd Girlie card, he, he, he! I think you will be seeing a few more of these Odd Girls from me.

Hope you have a stampin' Great weekend!

Hugs,

  11. I love seeing what can be done with the SOG images - haven't managed to get myself to digi images yet. Love those sunglasses & the suntan. Super the way her bikini picks up the colours of the various papers. That hair is lovely. Interesting to see how the open brackets bordering picks up on the scallps & the shape fl the flower above the ribbon.
