Hello.
I'm excited today, to be a guest designer over at the
Thanks so much to the team for inviting me to play along.
This time, they would like to see a lilac and aqua combo.
Now, lilac is cool. I can do lilac.
But Aqua, that's a bit more tricky. Is it green, is it blue? Yes - I googled aqua :o)
So, google it if you need to, or, if you want some inspiration, nip over to the blog and check out the fab work from the designers.
I hope you'll play along.

I love this bokeh style background, and it's a lot easier than I thought.
If I can do it, anyone can! I simply inked up a card panel with shaded lilac, and then used white ink with a circles stencil.
Eddie and Ethel are stamped, fussy cut, and coloured with Copics.
It does look a bit green in the pictures, but its definitely aqua :o)

How cute are these two?
I'm going to keep this card for my wedding anniversary in July - it will be our 40th.
Oooh, that's ruby isn't it - maybe I should remake this using reds.

I am just tickled to have you with us for this challenge, Caroline. I too google colors when I am making the graphics to do my best to have the right tone. Aqua is the hardest by far. As you know, I think your card is just as cute as it can be. Eddy and Ethel look so cute in their matching sweaters. Have a great rest of your week.
I'd say you nailed these colors, Caroline! Your bokeh background is perfect for showing off this sweet pair! It's so nice to have you as our Guest Designer!
This is such a fab take on the colours Caroline, the Bokeh background is perfect for the sweet couple to stand against. So happy to have you guesting with us this time. :)
Eddie & Ethel are absolutely ADORABLE and colored to perfection Caroline! Definitely a perfect anniversary card, and YAY for 40 years!! I love your Bokeh background too...haven't used that technique in quite awhile...thanks for reminding me!! And thanks for being our Special GD at Color Hues too...you have definitely inspired our players!! Marcia (DT) :0)

Your bokeh actually looks like love floating in the background. It's really pretty against the lavender and your critters are adorable. Thanks so much for guesting with us!
