Colour recipe part two


I saw a card on Pinterest using bright vibrant colours but I wondered whether I could make it work for the colour challenge on Less is More.
Not sure it quite worked the pink and yellow turned out to be a bit darker than I thought it would. The flowers are various Hero Arts flowers stamped with versamark and embossed with white powder.
To finish I stamped in Crumb cake the woodgrain stamp from Stampin Up and the sentiment is from them too.
I only use a bit of Kraft but found it too large so the strip left made another card but strange how I photo them at the same time and the colours are totally different.
I also you the Expression of You stamp and die set from Simon Says Stamps.

Chrissy said...

They are both fabulous Debby...I learnt this colour illusion at the paint store the other day..the darker background can make the front colours appear darker and vise versa..I never gave it much thought till I realised that a paint trim can change so dramatically depending on your house colour...so there you go..lol..some useless information to sleep on..

Luv CHRISSYxx

I love the card. You did a great job by fooling me......I thought you used design paper. But instead you make your own design paper.
So well done Debby
