The Challenge: Candy Colorized
Take a bowl full of colorful candies (M&Ms, Jolly Ranchers, jelly beans, etc.), close your eyes, and draw 2-3 pieces. Now use those colors (+ a neutral of your choosing) to form the basis for your ensemble. **Extra brownie points if you post more than 1 colorful ensemble or if you add a DIY element (because I love DIYs so much!) :D**
because i'm an over-achieving geek, i had to try to get the brownie points. i got my favourite sour skittles (mostly because i wanted to eat the candy after... lol). i drew orange, yellow and purple. i confess trying to use my yellow blythe but then i got it dirty when i was putting it on *facepalm* left to my own devices, i used the t & j lemondrop twice. (hope i can still get brownie points. #i.am.a.dork.)
