Be brave




I would like to share at:
Unity Stamps - I went with the colour combo

and
The Paper Players - think spring

Initially, I found this a difficult colour combo - I guess because I tend to work with darker and/or more muted colours. The more I worked though, the more the colours grew on me and reminded me of spring. I also struggled with the design and layout here, but once I added the textured yellow background panel, it started to come together more.

Unity uses the best quotes don't they???


Thanks so much for visiting! I do love reading your comments!

What I used:
stamps: Unity "The TIME is now" and "Strength and Dignity" Nov 2013 Kit of the month
SU background stamp, CTMH flourish
Tim Holtz Distress inks: Peacock Feathers, Antique Linen, Squeezed Lemon and Tumbled Glass
watercolour brush
Sizzix embossing folder
yellow patterned paper (behind main panel) - Heidi Swap "Serendipity"

    I love how you random stamped the butterflies and the daisy with a touch of burlap is a fabulous touch.
