Let Your Light Shine Brightly

My Final TCR RDA Layout


This is my final palette as a Revolving Door Artist at The Colour Room. It's been so much fun and I'm so grateful to have had the experience. Pop on over for some amazing inspiration and a gorgeous colour palette to get the juices flowing!!

You all know I love my brights, so I was really challenged with 3 out of 4 of the palettes, as they were way out of my comfort zone... but I was so pleased with how they all came out.

Here is my take on this weeks palette. It took me a while to go through my stash to find the appropriate colours.

Ended up using some of the new BG Curio for the background with a Websters shaped pp and added a lace border for a bit of texture. The lovely hand cut damask paper is from Kaisercraft.

Spiffed up some gorgeous Maya Road clear doilies with some chippie buttons from the Chip Chop Shop, some fibres & a bit of bling. I couldn't go past adding a gorgeous flower cluster made from Prima, some gorgeous lace & ribbon flowers purchased overseas & some recycled bling buttons. Used a diecut chipboard flower stem from the BG Curio range and the sweet little stamped bird is from Inkadinkado.

Thanks so much for stopping by and leaving some love :)
