Welcome to the Crafting By Designs Blog
Hop! We are celebrating our 1st Birthday!
Our theme is Patriotic / the colours of
your flag.
If you arrived here from the talented Tammy Smith’s Blog, you
are still on course. If not, you might want to start from the beginning at my friend
Doris’s Blog.
At Crafting By Designs we have members from all over the world and
this gave all of us a chance to show off our national flags and cities or
countries and be patriotic.
I live in the most beautiful city, Cape
Town, on the tip of Africa, in Sunny, Friendly South Africa.
Our flag is quite unique, since it is the
only National flag that has 6 colours in its main design. So I have a wonderful palette
of 6 colours to play with: Blue Black, Chilli Red, Gold Yellow, Spectrum Green,
National Flag White & National Flag Blue. Read a bit more here and here.
Our Democracy is 18 years old this year,
and for my creation, I chose Katniss Girl on Fire from Sassy Studio Designs to showcase the colours of my flag: I chose the red, gold, black & white. It shows youth and vibrancy, and also the preciousness of our cultures & peoples. (my interpretation)
Thanks that I could entertain you for a
minute or 2. Hope you enjoyed the visit and will pop in again!
I would also like to invite you to visit Crafting by Designs once you have completed the Blog Hop, and if you like what you see, do consider joining us. We have regular challenges, loads of inspiration from the Design Team and the other members.The best part is the friendship and fun we share. Hope that we'll see you there too!
Your next stop will be the fabulous blog of:Tammy Martinez.
