Hello,
Welcome to Colour Hues Challenge #75, where our wonderful Julie B has selected hues of Light Blue and Purple as inspiration for the next two weeks. A lovely pairing for Christmas or...anything!
We're also delighted to have Linda Snodgrass joining us as our guest designer.
My card features products from Pink & Main, part of the massive box of goodies received from this Fall's Crop & Create event. The snowflakes were made with a combination dies + embossing folder. Easy to cut out and so pretty! I've used a couple shades each of purple and light blue distress inks for the background; the falling snow is a Simon Hurley stencil + lunar paste.
Looking forward to seeing how Light Blue and Purple inspire you.
I just left Marcia's blog, and snowflakes seem to be the perfect answer to a Light Blue and Purple challenge. The ink blending with the embossing folder makes a great background for your lovely snowflakes! Love it.
ReplyDeleteA gorgeous colour combo, and I love how you've used it on your beautiful card, Carol, Jo x
ReplyDeleteI'm with Karen about your background Carol, a perfect backdrop to those die cut and embossed snowflakes. :)
ReplyDeleteYour ink blending is beautiful and makes the perfect landing spot for those wonderful snowflakes!
ReplyDeleteI'll have to jump on the bandwagon too Carol...your ink blending is absolutely beautiful!! The die cut and embossed snowflakes are sooooo pretty, and the whole card is just perfect for these color hues! Lovely, lovely card my friend! 😊
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card, Carol. Your ink blended background is magical and I love the effects of the different papers for the snowflakes.
ReplyDeleteI think many of us were of the same mind that these colors were perfect for winter/snowflakes! You had better color choices than I initially did for trying to blend Distress inks for the background, and I love how yours turned out, along with those pretty die cut snowflakes! Beautiful card, Carol!!
ReplyDeletePretty card and let's just say your ink blending is perfection! Have a great Friday and weekend too!
ReplyDeleteCarol, beautiful card with the gorgeous ink blending to showcase your pretty snowflakes. Perfect colors for snowflake cards. Thanks for having me as GD on Color Hues.
ReplyDeleteCarol these colours are blending so beautifully and those snowflakes are super unique. Lindsey would be thrilled to know you were using the Crop & Create products to make those pretty, pretty snowflakes!
ReplyDeleteThis gorgeous creation has me almost (almost) liking purple. *wink* Divine Carol!
ReplyDeleteA lovely wintry card, Carol! Your ink blended background is beautifully done, and the snowflakes are perfect for these colors. Love it!
