Guest Designer at Colour Me...! Monochromatic: CMCC#61




Hello and happy Wednesday.  I am so pleased announce that I am the Guest Designer at Colour Me...! for the month of March.  The official color this week is Tangelo Twist, and I used PTI Orange Fizz, which is the best match I had.  Because the orange is so bright, I decided to use it sparingly, more as an accent color.  I've used it as a border on my card front and also as the base of my butterfly, where I've softened it with a layer of vellum.  




I hope you will play along this week at Colour Me...!

I am also entering this card in the following challenges:   CAS on Sunday #53 where the challenge is Girl Power, and Simon Says Wednesday where the challenge is Girly.





Thanks for Visiting

    So excited for you to be a Guest Designer and what a fabulous interpretation of the color and theme!!! Your card looks so marvelous and I love the touch of vellum on that butterfly - the frame of the card is subtle but adds such texture to the card!!! Wow - I hope you have fun as a GD!!! Hope your weekend is fabulous too!!!
