The colour combo at
Colour Me this week is Daffodil Delight, Marina Mist plus neutral, aptly named Colour Me Striking. Last night, as I lay awake listening to a massive lightning storm, this idea came to me -perhaps it was the forked lightning that got me on to the idea of chevrons!
I don't have any Daffodil Delight but this AC cardstock Lemon seems a pretty close match.
After I constructed this card, it just needed a little something extra. I didn't have any enamel dots even close to the right colour so necessity being the mother of invention and all, I made my own by punching some tiny circles and covering them with Glossy Accents. I'm pretty pleased with how they turned out.
So, a bright and cheerful birthday card, good for guys too.
Update: Delighted to be picked as a Colour Connoisseur at Colour Me.
