ColourQ #347....Have a Beautiful Day



If you are looking for my CASology post, please click here.

It's time for another color challenge at ColourQ.

I really loved the bold floral pattern on the inspiration photo, and decided to go bold as well for my card.


Sometimes when I work on a color challenge, I have to remind myself that I don't have to use all the colors in the same amount.  In fact, it is better to follow the 'gallon, quart, pint' rule that I heard about somewhere (probably a PTI Make it Monday video).


I used the dark brown (Memento Rich Cocoa) for my Mondo Magnolia stamp and sentiment, Peach Parfait (for me, Crisp Canteloupe paper) and Blush Blossom (Sweeet Blush paper) for my flower--which I fussy cut, and Going Grey (liquid pearls) as an accent color.

Please head over to the ColourQ blog to see more inspiration from the Design Team.  I hope you will play along this week.


Thanks for Visiting
