Birthday Craic

Dia Daoibh!

Well now, not much going on this week unless you count me arguing with my double-sided tape and losing—again. But I am thrilled to be Guest Designer over at the AAA Colourful Challenge Blog! The designers there are a fab bunch of crafty geniuses, and I’m chuffed to join them for Colourboard #18—a bright explosion of pink, orange, yellow and green that looks like a party straw convention.

The challenge runs 15th July to 14th August, so plenty of time to get your rainbow on. 

I hit the scrap stash and die cut some bold, stripy bits in those juicy colours, added a few stars (glittered to within an inch of their lives), and popped them up on foam pads for dimension. The sentiment—"IT’S YOUR DAY"—is from my beloved Sizzix alphabet dies, survivors of the Great COVID-Clearout™. I couldn’t part with them then, and I won’t now, not even if you bribe me with crisps. The coloured enamel drops? Ha! I live in Ireland. We’ve got rain, not rainbow drops. So I faked it with teeny punched circles and a blob of Ranger Glossy Accents—job done!

A few challenges:

Come join the fun over at AAA Colourful and show the world your best and brightest. The more colour, the better—unless you’re my washing machine, in which case, please stop turning everything pink.

Sláinte,
Wendy R. 🌞
