August Challenge

Welcome to the August challenge - where did the rest of the year disappear to?

August is the month of the Notting hill Carnival

The challenge this month is bold, bright and loud. 

I found this website with an amazing picture which sums it up

Here is what the design team created:

When I think about carnivals I think about a real eclectic mix of styles, colours & objects & with this in mind I created the frame above. I used glimmer sprays to give a really brighy & shimmery feel to the background  and then I just put a collection together of my favourite bits and pieces from my stash

I recenetly went to a very french themed carnival not far from me! so thought i'd create a card that followed this it was full of colours but the main being pink and black!

I decided as it was Summer to make the card extra bright and bold but also having what we all want on a warm day, ICE CREAM!!

Your prize this month is a RAK from my own stash of a packet of card blanks, envelopes and some ribbon.  Entry is open now via the inlinkz button below until 23:59 GMT on 31st August.
