There's a new Pretty Palette color challenge going on over at the My Time Made Easy blog. When I looked at this palette again, I thought, "what was I thinking?" But then once I started playing around, I found I really liked this combination of colors.
I wanted to stamp and color. MTME has a bevvy of digital products, but they also have some great stamps. I created the diamond shape background using the Amazing Argyle stamp set. I colored the flowers using the red, celery, and eggplant colors. I went searching for some orchid gingham ribbon I thought I still had, but found it was all used up! I came across this orchind rick-rack ribbon and used that instead. I placed a big ol' red heart in the middle and made it a Valentine card. It wasn't my intention, but that's where the inspiration took me! For the sentiment, I reached for the Sentimental Occasions stamp set and stamped it in Versafine black ink. To fill up some of that white space, I added some red crystals.
You can see more inspiration for these colors at these blogs.
Thanks for stopping by!
