Bloggers Challenge - Color Combo

This week's challenge was REALLY a challenge. Colors to use were: Really Rust, Regal Rose, Sahara Sand, and Blue Bayou. My first challenge was to find some Blue Bayou! I finally found a small piece. Second challenge was getting through making this card...I really don't like these colors together! I tried to tone down the Regal Rose cardstock, but sponging some Sahara Sand ink on it...kind of yucky, but it's not so bright.

Stamps: Polka Dots & Paisleys

Cardstock: Really Rust, Regal Rose, Sahara Sand, Blue Bayou

Ink: Really Rust, Regal Rose, Sahara Sand

Other: Crafter's Tool Kit, sponge dauber

  3. Good for you Toni! Glad you were able to locate a piece of the Bayou Blue and pull together a great card. I think we all had trouble with the Regal Rose! Just didn't blend with the other colors, but you did a good job utilizing all the colors and a retired stamp set also. Hooray!
