Just Add...Colour Combo - JAI#87

Good Friday morning ~

Over at Just Add Ink this week Nikki has given us a colour challenge. At first I wasn't sure of these colours, but once I got playing it was easy, it really is a nice combo.


This is the first time I've used the rolled flower die. The little flowers are very uniform aren't they? I think I prefer freehand to be honest, there is always a bit more texture and more of a 'real' look to the flowers.

The colour palette this week is Pool Party, Calypso Coral, Crumb Cake and Whisper White. Make sure you go over to JAI and check out the design team inspiration - fabulous, even a couple I'm hoping to CASE in the near future :o)

Hope you've all got fun plans for the weekend. I'm kind of hoping this rain will stay with us for a few more days ... gives me the perfect excuse to stay indoors and craft and not feel guilty that I can't mow the lawn or tend to the garden. Hee hee.

Take care and enjoy!

    This is a sweet card, love the textured pool party square!

    I like the little flowers you have created - their 'uniform-ness' is nice :)

    BEAUTIFUL, lovey! The rich colour of the coral roses really stands out against all the white space. Love the little embossed panel, too.

    I love the flowers "uniform-ness" too! I strive to get mine like that so I may have to invest in the die!
    Another stunningly gorgeous card Patrice!

    This really is stunning Patrice. You kind of captured the essence of the colours with this wonderful clean but at the same time detailed card. Beautiful :)

    Fantastic card Patrice, I love the clean and simple style, I am a bit like you with the flowers, I love the die for when I am in a hurry, but love to freehand it for a more rougher look when I have time, either way the flowers are gorgeous and fit perfectly with your beautiful card.

    I really like this card P with the strong colour for the roses. Like you though, I prefer the freehand type flower though! A beautiful card my friend!
