Default WT224 - Bold & Bright {o6/25/09}

Bold and bright designs are a fun product trend we are finding in the industry. Even vintage has gone a little bold and bright these days. I thought it would be a fun challenge this summer to put together bold and bright color combos and elements. I'm really not talking about a particular color group....feel free to use whatever colors you wish but have a little fun with some color pop. Find ways to use bold and bright color combos. I love the warmth and funky feel of some of these new styles. Can wait to see what you come up with. The gallery is going to be HOT today!

Jennifer R's sample: Welcome Summer

My sample: Welcome Home

Have fun with the challenge and have a fabulous day!

I'm actually number 7!! Oooh, hard challenge - I don't gravitate to bolds and brights. But my husband does, so I do force myself to make one of those every once in a while.

Oh dear -- just my style -- how bold and bright do you think I could go -- I'm in an airport headed for CA to scrap with my friends. They are NOT bold and bright -- I will have a great time driving them crazy.

Here is a bold and bright banner that I made yesterday, may I slip it in here?
It does not contain any stamping, but I definitely was going for bold and bright due to the height that this is hanging. It does bring a smile to your face just walking into the room

This was sooooo hard for me!!! I just have a really hard time with bright colors! Broke out an ancient set that I have hardly ever used and I guess that's because it screams bright colors to me. Anyway...blah, blah, blah.....here's mine:

A slap of color adds a splash of life to the day!!!! This was fun, because Every color has its qualities and these are no exception. Here's my card:

Gosh - too hot to think here, LOL. I'll start thinking and come back and make when it's a bit cooler. Good challenge for me, though, as it takes me out of my comfort zone.

This was so much fun! I love bold, bright colors and was going to use the new In Colors, but I decided I needed to use the classic Bold Brights. You know, share the love! Here's mine:
