#15 - Erin

Love the weathered wood effect and the layered stamps in the background. She created a lovely vintage feel to this Steampunk plaque.

#18 - Carol

Wonderful texture and vintage quality using distress inks and distressed edges.

#26 - Kathi Rerek

I love how she has combined steampunk & underwater elements to expand on the digi stamp's theme. The blue stenciled backing paper was an especially nice touch. Fabulous colouring too!

#24 - Mimi

fabulous embossing - loved all the explanation.

#23 - Margreet

She has managed to create a card with light and feel that's built up of many complex layers.

#6 - Jennifer

Wonderful color choice, it's so bright and cheerful! The layers and the distressing are well done, so many treats for the eyes to look at!

Challenge #79 Black and White Plus One Colour with Lacy Sunshine

What on earth happened to the sunshine!? If you know - please send it back to the UK... we don't have much of it and it's making it hard to get creative wrapped in fleecy blankets! However, we do manage and this week we've been playing with some images from Lacy Sunshine.

Our theme this week is Black and White Plus One Colour. We would love to see your creations this week and can't wait to see what rainbow of colours will appear on the linky tool by the end of the week.

I think that when you see the team's creations you will get some fabulous inspiration - just take a look at these! And remember - you can always go LOC and then you're not restricted by colour!
