actually Aqua

This week is colour challenge week at Less is more #53-colour, Aqua Chrissie and Mandi want us to use Aqua.  Well I did use Aqua but Picassa has chosen to make it look green. Until I find my camera (lost in the messy room somewhere) I am reduced to scanning!  I'm trying to get it in some sort of order before I get my left eye done on the 14th.  Ella the puppy is enjoying the snow far more than me, she has a lovely fur coat! I loved the sketch at Card patterns #sketch-151
I used: recycled raffia ribbon, bakers twine and button and cardstock from stash, embossing folder (?) and Craftworks sentiment. LIM Mandi
gave me the idea of actually using the paper crimper I bought back in December!
I would also like to enter:Unstampabelles #8-recycling (the raffia) I often make cards without stamping so this is a good challenge for me :-) DYSU #-57-anything-goes http://www.craftyourpassionchallenges.blogspot.com/  no pattern paper
