CCMC242 Color Challenge

Hi and welcome to another color challenge with Create With Connie & Mary.  The colors this week are all from the 2012-14 In Color range and I have to admit I had a challenge working with them together.  My first two attempts will never see the light of day, but I'm reasonably happy with this final attempt.

I ended up going back to my old stand-by of a white background.  From there I stamped the Hello, Doily stamp and embossed in white EP.  I sponged Primrose Petals in the middle and Raspberry Ripple towards the edges.  A Designer Builder Brad with some Summer Starfuit DSP and a matching sentiment finish the card.

In case you're interested, I created a negative mask of the Hello, Doily image to keep my sponging where I wanted it to go.  That gave the nice crisp edge to the sponging.

Here's a graphic of the challenge colors.  Check out the awesome creations from the rest of the challenge team and have a go yourself.

Thanks for looking.
