Good Monday Morning Everyone!I have a really quick post for you today but first I want to thank everyone for the get well wishes! I'm feeling a LOT better this morning however; I do have to visit my Dr. today & there's our downline meeting tonight so let's get on to my post!!!
For our meeting this month, we had to create something using a color combo from the Color Wheel. Not as easy as it looks peeps but I think I did OK. I really wanted to use my Taste of Textiles paper since it's retiring so it was a no-brainer that I would be using Not Quite Navy. The hard part was figuring out where to use the rest of the colors that went with my base. After tossing it around for a bit, I decided to use a layout from the current catalog....page 81....as a starting point. You'll see that my card isn't exactly like that one but very similiar----you have to LOVE that book for all it offers right?!!
Well, that's it for me right now! I need to get moving so I'm not late to see Dr. Rey......in case I don't get to create anything myself; I'll probably be sharing some of our swaps tomorrow. I know that there's going to be some great cards!! Thanks so much for stopping by and have a great rest of the day!
TTFN,
Hugs,
Supplies:
Embrace Life ss; Not Quite Navy, Whisper White & Blush Blossom cs; Close to Cocoa & Basic Black ink; Taste of Textiles DSP; Eyelet Border, Scallop Oval & Large Oval Punches; SU! Markers; Always Artichoke Grosgrain Ribbon; Rhinestone Brads; Crystal Effects

ReplyDeleteLove your card! So pretty. Love that little upturned corner with the brad and love the green ribbon! Great job!
This is beautiful Jackie!
ReplyDeleteI bought that color wheel a couple of years ago because I thought it was such a neat idea and would give me inspiration. But some of those color combos are "unique" to say the least and I didn't end up using it much. I do, however, think that this combo works well together. This is pretty.
ReplyDeleteOoooh, what a beautiful card, Jackie...love the colors and those gorgeous flowers!!! Love the little flipped corner, too!!!
ReplyDeletelovely card
