A Splash of Colour

 

It is another Sensational Saturday at Sugar Creek Hollow and we have a colour challenge for you.  We want you to use mostly black and white and add a splash of one other colour.  I chose yellow but the leaves on the image needed to be coloured so I had to use green but made sure it was a very yellowy green.
You don't have to use a Sugar Creek Hollow image to enter but if you do, make sure you follow the instructions on the sidebar to enter your card twice as you are entitled to a second entry in the random drawing.

I am going to enter this card in the following challenges:

Digi Doodle Shops Best - Anything Goes
Penny's Paper Crafty - Anything Goes
Stampin' Royalty - Anything with Wings
Kaboodle Doodles - Black & White plus One Other Colour

Image:  Bee Tile (Sugar Creek Hollow)
Card Stock:  White (Staples), Yellow anbd Black (Recollections)
Paper:  Shabby Princess
Colouring Medium:  pencil Crayons (Prismacolor) with OMS (Taltine)
Tools & Embellishments:  Button (My Stash), Flower (Dollarama), Pearls (Recollections), Flourishes (Cindy Loo Cartridge with Cricut)

    Cec, you picked one of my favorite Sugar Creek Hollow images for your card. I just love that bee and he's perfect for a black and white challenge. I love all of your swirls and your yellow rose. (wait until you see my card...B&W&yellow with a yellow rose...great minds think alike?) This card is just so bold and elegant. Very beautiful!
