April 17, 2016

This week on the Watercooler Wednesday Challenge - it's a color challenge and I know everyone loves those.  This week Kath Ricks has put together four gorgeous colours with which we can create some wonderful projects. 

Colour challenges force one to use just the colours in the challenge, plus a neutral which is "free".  It's not always easy to stay within the palette, but that's why we have challenges---to force ourselves to work outside our comfortable "boxes". 

This week I combined the four colours from the challenge with different embossing folders.  I used the flower stamp from Fabulous Florets and the sentiment from Party Pants.

 
Thanks for looking....

  1. Hi Betty, what a great way to use the colours for the challenge! Using a different embossing folder on each colour really gives a wonderful background for the silhouette image from the Fabulous Florets (still miss that stamp set since it retired!) I especially like the way you've staggered the colours in different lengths against the white background. What a clever idea! Thanks so much for joining our Watercooler Wednesday Challenge this week.
