WOW a ColourQ courtier winner!!! Thanks Arielle
I was trying for a wallpaper effect, which initially worked quite well, but then if I was going to put a chair in front of it the proportions were all wrong. So everything got chopped down (bad idea) and in frustration I added the flowers.
So I don't think I have done Arielle's great colour combination justice, but I will have a go at this palette again.
It's a rainy cold (for us) day in Brisbane and it's my Mother-in-law's birthday lunch. We settled on a piece of Swarowski crystal for her which I think she will like. Hoping to get a bit of time at the Craft Expo before that while the rest of my family go to the Lifeline Book Fest (millions of donated books resold)
What you need
Cardstock - PTI Kraft; SU Very Vanilla, Cherry Cobbler
DSP - SU Jolly Holiday
Stamps - PTI Just for You, Delightful Dahlia (sentiment)
Ink - SU Early Espresso (and marker), Soft Suede, Crumb Cake, Cherry Cobbler
Gems and Pearls - Kaisercraft
Looks mighty fine to me!
ReplyDeleteThere's nothing wrong with this at all Cassandra! I think it's lovely and I love that colour scheme! xx
ReplyDeleteI love this card, very cute. But do give this colour combination another go, because it is an awesome one! I even sent it off to Manda to have a go. Unfortunately these colours are still on my wishlist. . . I'll keep my eyes peeled at the craft show for you. :-)

I know what it means to have a plan and it not go well, Cassandra! However I love your card, flowers and all. It is different which is always a wonderful thing to achieve. thanks for joining us at the colourQ this week.
ReplyDeleteOh, but it's a gorgeous card! So much beautiful pattern and texture. It really does look like an artwork mounted on a wall! Love those flower centers!
