...YOU! Yep, friends: I'm thinking of you! You... and... well.... DAWN McVEY! Horray! Dawn has posted a new color challenge! And YOU know, you're happy to cavort in the colorful playground of her cute lil' inspirational swatch and the requisite color comparison consideration! {Do YOUR colors translate?} It can be so hard to tell for sure. These computer screens can be tricky little viewers! Well, here's my attempt to catch her attention with the use of her gorgeous color combo.... Ready, set... ADD color!
And here's the playful swatch!
I will admit that I'm so partial to color combos that feature a lot of different color! Five works mighty fine for me! Love that blue! {I sure hope I got close with my choice! Doh!} I was hopeful for inspiration that could really make these colors "happy" together (in card format!) and I'm so powerless over this background stamp! Once I decided to make a cloudy sky, the rest of the story just fell into place! Here's a detail shot of the birdies, and you might notice that I got busy with the Martha Stewart multi-heart punch which worked mighty happily with this adorable Hero Arts tree!
Birdies and heart-poppin' happy thoughts and a color FESTIVAL to celebrate the day!
Hope yours is off to a good and delightful start, friends! I am looking forward to seeing what you do with these fabulous colors and, oh, pretty much anything else that you've made! Yipee!
