CURLS - Black with Two

i have just done this one for http://blackwith2challenge.blogspot.com/2011/10/winners-and-our-october-challenge.html and the colors to use this month are black base with baby pink and aqua.. well aqua has a few shades so i hope my shade is ok.. i had some fun with this one.. i stitched, paint splattered, used my cricut to cut out some flourishes and big shot to do some embossing for the first time! i made one of those pleated flowers for the first time too.. ( i think i need more practice!!!! ) the photo is my DD who is modelling her hair in curls after we curled it for a wedding..


thanks for popping in... i hope you are having a great day!

    Hey there Lizzy, great page ! Your colours are amazing, so bold and rich, even tho aqua and baby pink are soft colours I think the black makes them 'pop'. I also think you did a great job with your pleated flower, it looks perfect.
