Flower Patch and the Create with Connie and Mary Challenge 442
January 26, 2017
Ready for a Color Challenge? I am going to be honest, this was a hard combination for me. These are not colors that I naturally gravitate towards.
The color combination is pretty bold. Which helped me to decide that I needed to make something that had a lot of white space to balance out all the colors.
I chose a very simple flower from the Flower Patch stamp set and paired it with words from the Thoughtful Banners set. I love the polka dot DSP from the Brights Designer Series Paper Stack and thought it would compliment the sweet flowers.
The smaller flower acts as a latch to keep the card closed. I used the Tree Builder punch to make the little flower. Did you notice the stem is actually the "i" in friend?
Be sure to check out what the other designers created for this color combination challenge. Lots of great ideas. I am in awe of the talent on the Challenge Design team. Thanks for stopping by.
LOVE this....what a clever idea, that little window is wonderful! TFS!
