Arty Girlz Weekly Challenge # 45 ~ 'Blue'

Thank you to everyone who joined in with last weeks challenge. The winner of the gorgeous stamps is Chriss Rollins ~ Congratulations Chriss please email me artyjulie@gmail.com with your address :)

This weeks challenge is to have the colour BLUE as your main feature on your creation. As always you choose the format so you could make an atc, card, maybe a scrapbook layout with Blue in the title or you could even bake a cake and use blue icing .... it is completely up to you.

Post your challenge entry on your blog with a link to Arty Girlz and leave a comment here with a link to your creation its as simple as that :)

Have fun and lets hope this challenge doesn't leave you feeling blue ~ ok I know ... bad joke lol
