Hello!
I had a little play with a colour combo I have never thought of, thanks to the Colour Throwdown challenge this week :)
I had a little play with a colour combo I have never thought of, thanks to the Colour Throwdown challenge this week :)
I embossed a piece of Pool Party card with my not very often used Houndstooth EF... I really should use this more often!
The flower is from the Flower Shop set, stamped in Night Of Navy, and punched with the Pansy Punch. The Chevron Ribbon is Calypso Coral and the sentiment is from Teeny Tiny Sentiments, stamped in Night Of Navy and cut out using the Word Window Punch. I finished with some silver glass glitter in the middle of the flower for a bit of sparkle.
So what do you think of the colour combo? I think it has a nice, fresh feel to it!
Supplies
