Global Design Project Challenge #073 – Colour Challenge

6 February, 2017 by lizyuille 4 Comments

6 Feb

I am sure you know by now that I am really enjoying taking part in these challenges. This week is a Colour Challenge, and the palette is:

We are allowed to add Whisper White, Basic Black, Very Vanilla and Crumb Cake to these challenges, so this week my palette includes Whisper White and Crumb Cake.

I used one of the papers from the Affectionately Yours Designer Series Papers as the background for the card, and this was why I used Crumb Cake as one of my extra colours, as it is included in the pattern I had chosen. I also added a strip of one of the Washi Tapes from the suite as a grounding point.

The stamping came from the sentiment I had chosen, which is from Beautiful You – Wishing You Brighter Days to Come. I used two of the stamps from the Papillion Potpourri set, and three generations of each of the colours, with the full colour nearest to the sentiment. I then punched a Bitty Butterfly in Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer Paper (honestly, this was to cover a mark I had made on the card, but I think it finishes the card off!). I stamped three of the small butterflies inside the card in full strength of each of the colours.

I really enjoyed putting this card together and hope you like it too!

      Thanks Krista. I thought I was going to struggle with this one, but it came together really easily in the end.

I am being realistic and we have reset my Personal Bests for during this time in my life. But each week back at the gym is increasing those Personal Bests, which is great for the ego. It's all about being realistic.
